Chef's Note

This make-ahead breakfast is perfect for busy mornings. The batter can be prepared the night before and refrigerated, so all you need to do in the morning is cook the pancakes and warm up the compote. The cottage cheese provides protein while keeping the pancakes moist and fluffy. For a smoother batter, blend all ingredients in a blender before refrigerating overnight.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese

  • 1/3 cup rolled oats

  • 1 large egg

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries

  • 1 tablespoon orange juice

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

  • 2 teaspoon coconut oil

  • 2 fresh mint leaves

  • 2 tablespoon Greek yogurt

Instructions
  • 1

    The night before: In a blender, combine cottage cheese, rolled oats, egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, baking powder, and honey. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.

  • 2

    Transfer the batter to an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.

  • 3

    Also the night before: In a small saucepan, combine frozen berries, orange juice, and maple syrup. Heat over medium-low heat until berries begin to break down, about 5 minutes.

  • 4

    Transfer berry compote to a container and refrigerate overnight.

  • 5

    In the morning: Remove the pancake batter from the refrigerator and stir gently.

  • 6

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.

  • 7

    Pour 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

  • 8

    Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Add remaining oil as needed for subsequent batches.

  • 9

    While pancakes are cooking, warm the berry compote in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or in a small saucepan over low heat.

  • 10

    Serve pancakes topped with warm berry compote, a dollop of Greek yogurt, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
