Blueberry Sheet Pan Pancakes Ingredients

  • Daisy Blueberry Cottage Cheese Singles (3 containers): The cottage cheese adds moistness making the pancakes fluffier and a big boost of protein to keep you full longer. The real fruit compote brings a pop of color and delicious fresh burst of blueberry flavor in every bite.
  • Flour (1 ½ cups): You can use all all-purpose flour or a mixture of 1 cup all-purpose flour plus ½ cup whole wheat flour for this recipe. Adding whole wheat flour will result in coarser texture. The gluten in the flour gives pancakes volume and structure.
  • Baking Powder (1 tablespoon): A main ingredient for leavening, it adds volume and lightness to the batter and adds height to the pancakes.
  • Vanilla Extract (1 teaspoon): An essential ingredient in many baking recipes, it enhances the flavor of the pancakes and rounds out the flavor of the other ingredients.
  • Buttermilk (1/2 cup): The acid in buttermilk reacts to other ingredients in the batter, resulting in lighter, fluffier pancakes with a tender crumb.
  • Egg (2 large, separated): Acts as glue to hold the other ingredients together, adds protein, and adds height to the pancakes.
  • Unsalted Butter (2 tablespoons, melted): Lends flavor and richness to the batter.

Substitutions, Variations, and Tips

  • Try all the Daisy Cottage Cheese Single flavors for tasty twists. Strawberry, Pineapple, and Peach are all great choices.
  • Self-rising flour may be used for all-purpose in a 1:1 ratio. If using self-rising flour, reduce the baking powder to 2 1/2 teaspoons, as the self-rising flour already contains some leavener.
  • Whole wheat flour may be used to replace ½ cup of the all-purpose flour. Whole wheat flour is denser and more absorbent than all-purpose flour, so you don’t want to use it alone.
  • Make it gluten-free: Gluten-free flour may be used in a 1:1 ratio for the all-purpose flour.
  • Almond extract may be used in place of the vanilla extract.
  • No buttermilk? No problem.
    • Simply add 2 teaspoons of vinegar or lemon juice to ½ cup of regular milk and let set for a few minutes before using.
    • Or mix ½ cup Daisy Sour Cream with 2 tablespoons of butter or water.
  • Egg substitution: Mix 2 tablespoons of ground chia seeds mixed with 6 tablespoons of water. Rest until foamy (about 15 minutes). Note – this substitution will bind the other ingredients together and add height but without the richness or protein of whole eggs.
  • Salted butter may be used in place of unsalted butter. Margarine, shortening, vegetable oil, or coconut oil may also be used.
  • The batter will be thick. Spread onto the parchment as evenly as possible to ensure the pancakes cook evenly.
  • To make the perfect swirls, dollop the fruit compote onto the batter, and then swirl with a knife or spoon until the desired swirls are achieved.
  • Leftover pancake slices may be stored by cooling completely, then stacking between layers of parchment paper. They can then be stored in a zip-top bag with as much air removed as possible in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, pop into a toaster, microwave, or oven until just warmed.
