- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup oat flour
- ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Combine cottage cheese, pumpkin purée, eggs, oat flour, pumpkin pie spice, and baking powder in a blender or food processor. Blend until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Heat Griddle: Lightly oil a griddle or non-stick skillet and heat it over medium heat until hot.

- Serve: Transfer pancakes to a plate and serve warm with maple syrup, Greek yogurt, or your favorite toppings.
Notes
