Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 tbsp strawberry jam
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Method

  1. Whisk the cottage cheese, eggs, milk and vanilla together until fairly smooth; a little texture is fine.

  2. Stir in the flour, baking soda and salt just until combined. Let the batter sit 5 minutes to thicken.

  3. Melt a little of the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.

  4. Drop the batter in quarter-cup pools. Cook until bubbles hold open on the surface, about 3 minutes, then turn and cook 2 minutes more.

  5. Keep going with the remaining butter and batter, and serve the stacks with the jam spooned over.
