These high protein cottage cheese pancakes are everything!

- 1 pinch of salt
- Optional Top with Greek yogurt or Ovino Sheep Yogurt + drizzle with honey or maple syrup

Notes
Why make regular pancakes when you can make these delicious cottage cheese pancakes? (or as my grandmother likes to call them in Russian, "sirniki"). They are gluten free, packed with protein, lower in carbs (for those who are trying to improve their insulin sensitivity), and they won't leave you starving before your next meal.
In my opinion, they taste just as delicious when they are cold. Add these to your next meal prep and have them ready to go for those early rush hour mornings.
