Steps
- 1Add the cottage cheese, banana, egg, oats, baking powder, and cinnamon to a blender. Blend until mostly smooth and let the batter stand for 5 minutes.
- 2Warm a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat for 2 minutes. Lightly spray the surface; the pan should be warm, not smoking.
- 3Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter for each pancake. Keep them small because small pancakes are easier to turn without tearing.
- 4Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles appear and the edges look set. Slide a thin spatula underneath and flip once.
- 5Cook the second side for 1 to 2 minutes. Lower the heat if the outside browns before the center feels firm.
- 6Serve with berries or a spoonful of cottage-cheese sour cream. Refrigerate leftovers and reheat in a dry skillet.
Grit & Soul tip
Use medium-low heat. Cottage cheese makes the batter moist, so the center needs time to cook through.

The memory belongs below the recipe.
The social-video pancake trend works because blending cottage cheese changes its texture; this version keeps the ingredients simple and the instructions forgiving.
Grit & Soul keeps the cooking directions easy to reach first. The story still matters, but it should never make someone scroll forever before they can cook.
