wow i like this idea a lot!! but i’m wondering about 2 things:
-why do you use cottage cheese? is it possible to substitute with yogurt or cream cheese?
-can i use crushed cereal (like grounded bran cereal) instead of oat?

Thanks!!

Cottage cheese notoriously works well in pancakes. I’ve used ricotta cheese with good results too. If you try yogurt, I suggest greek yogurt and using less (maybe 2/3 cup?) and cream cheese may also work well. But if it’s the cottage cheese flavor you’re worried about, I promise you won’t even taste it, noone ever has! I would say crushed bran cereal would work well too, but since it’s higher in fiber you may need to add more liquid. ~ Nick

You know, once this house is cleared of it’s peanut ban (awaiting test results now), my son is going to just love you and your recipes. This might be #3 on his list of things to try, after a sandwich and a peanut butter cup!

I made Kath’s version of your pancakes this morning (using a 1/3 of oats, 1/3 cottage cheese and I also added ground flax and cinnamon). I just wanted to let you know they were excellent! Great job!

beth, Yes I think so! I’ve been meaning to try this using fat free ricotta which is a little difficult to find here in Davis, CA but I’m sure you can find it in San Fran! I’m sure it would work just as well if not better. I love ricotta cheese, but you may want to add a few pinches of salt. Let me know the results!!

Hi! Do you think these could also be made with ricotta cheese?

cris, that means you clearly need to move. Life without peanut butter is hardly life at all!

e, Naturally it would be an enabling group, stopping the wave of peanut butter sweeping the nation (is it?) is impossible. I like the idea of a peanut butter group, perhaps WPBB....We should work on this!

Elisabeth, I suppose the only thing better than the pancakes themselves are the original chef there to cook them for you, especially when he is so charming =).

Thank you for making these for me bright and early in the morning. They were a great way to start my day… and of course you were there too so even better!

Peanut Butter-holics Anonymous is a great idea. I can see it turning into more of a enabling group rather than a recovery group, though. At the very least maybe there should be Weekend Peanut Butter Blogging (WPBB?)
