My kids loves pancakes. However, because of growing them, and birthing them, I can’t stand at a frying pan long enough to make them (post partum pancakes, if you will!)! This is why I love baked pancakes. That, and cause this recipe so quick and easy to make.
This recipe provides enough for 2 adults and 2-3 kids.
Lovely with or without dark chocolate chips (I had some left over).
Ingredients
- 50ml oil
- Eggs x 4
- 1 x 300g pot cottage cheese
- 200ml milk
- Vanilla Extract
- 160g wholemeal flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 bananas
- 1 x handful pecans (crushed if giving to kids less than 5y old)
How to make them
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
- Pour 50 ml oil into a tray bake dish. If the dish is small and deep, the pancakes will take longer. Then pop that into the oven to heat.
- Mix 300g pot of cottage cheese with 200ml of milk, drop of vanilla extract and 4 eggs.
- Then measure out 160g wholemeal flour and 1 tsp baking powder.
- Take the dish out of the oven (with gloves) and pour the hot oil into the mixture. Then pour in the flour and baking powder.
- Pop the bananas and pecans into the dish and pour the mixture on top.
- Finish with dark chocolate chips (optional). Bake for 30 mins.
Serve on their own or with some yoghurt on the side. Berries would be lovely too, if you had them!
Enjoy! X
Nutritional Information
It’s about 500 calories and 20g protein, if you like knowing that sort of thing. So, you could call them protein pancakes but without protein powder! Bump up the protein further with some Skyr, Quark or Greek yogurt in the side, easily hitting 30 to 35 grams of protein per serving.
