If your family loves pancakes, then you’ll love this cheesy version to switch things up! For any of you who have been following our blog for some time, it’s no secret that we are quite fond of cheese. So how could we pass up these pancakes inspired by a cheese blintz? We couldn’t, and you shouldn’t either. Enjoy!
Whole Wheat Cheese Blintz Pancakes
Adapted from Rachael Ray Magazine
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
- 6 tablespoons milk
- 4 1/2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder + 1/8 teaspoon extra
- 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
- butter for cooking
- jam for topping
Instructions
-
In a blender, combine the eggs, flour, milk, syrup, baking powder, and cottage cheese. Blend until just combined, less than 30 seconds.
-
Heat the griddle to 350 degrees F or set a large saute pan over medium low heat. Melt the butter, and then add the batter by the spoonful and cook until lightly brown on both sides, about 5 minutes total.
-
Top with berry jam and serve warm.

We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.

These were not my favorite. I love pancakes, but these aren’t pancakes to me. They were spongy, thin and didn’t ever seem done enough for me. I didn’t fry them in butter. I used a griddle set a little lower than 350 because they kept get overdone on the outside. My little man enjoyed them, but I wouldn’t make these again for myself.
I love cheese and I love this blintz pancakes. Great, simple ingredients list with one of my favourite protein sources – cottage cheese :) Fantastic breakfast food for sure!
I used Ricotta which I had on hand an omitted the maple syrup. They were delecious! My 2 year old and hubby gobbled them down. I slathered with jelly and rolled up for my daughter and served fresh fruit on the side :)
I completely misread the cheese ingredient and did these with cream cheese. They were amazing!!
Just made and served with pumpkin fluff. Delicious
It doesn’t seem worth dirtying a blender for 30 seconds. Would a stick blender work for this? It’s easier to clean.
Hi! Let us know how that works. ;)
Pancakes are great for breakfast and snack. You can even put some of your favorite food like chocolate chips or chocolate syrup, strawberry syrup, corn and you can even put bacon and you will surely enjoy.
