Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (small curd works best)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened almond milk)
  • 3/4 cup flour (all-purpose, white whole wheat, or gluten-free blend)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter (plus a little extra for the pan)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or dill)
  • Optional mix-ins: 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, pinch of chili flakes
  • Filling ideas: avocado, arugula, roasted peppers, cucumbers, smoked salmon, turkey, sautéed mushrooms, hummus, or a swipe of Dijon

Instructions
 

  • Blend the base: Add cottage cheese, eggs, milk, and olive oil to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Add dry ingredients: Toss in flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, herbs, and any optional seasonings. Pulse just until combined. Don’t overblend.
  • Rest the batter: Let it sit for 5–10 minutes. This helps the flour hydrate and the pancakes hold together.
  • Heat the pan: Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush with oil or butter.
  • Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/3 cup batter into the pan. Spread gently into a thin circle, 6–7 inches wide. Cook 1–2 minutes until the edges look set and bubbles appear.
  • Flip carefully: Slide a thin spatula underneath and flip. Cook another 30–60 seconds until golden and cooked through. Adjust heat to avoid burning.
  • Repeat: Transfer to a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep warm. Continue with remaining batter, oiling the pan as needed. You should get 6–8 wraps.
  • Fill and roll: Add your fillings while the pancakes are warm. Roll like a burrito or fold like a taco.
