Poppy Seed Cottage Cheese Pancakes
A 30-minute rest, then months of breakfasts.
Tender cottage cheese pancakes with semolina and poppy seeds. The batter must rest 30 minutes in the fridge before frying so the semolina absorbs and the pancakes hold their shape. Freeze for up to 3 months.

Ingredients
- 300 g cottage cheese 5% fat
- 1 pcs egg yolk (category C1)

- Heat a pan well, add vegetable oil to coat the entire surface, and add a small knob of butter.
