Cottage cheese pancakes with banana baked in the oven are tender, airy, and healthy treats that delight with their soft taste and aroma. They originate from Russian cuisine, where cottage cheese has long been one of the most beloved ingredients for baking. In this recipe, it combines with banana, which adds a light sweetness and fruity note, while honey enhances the natural flavor of the ingredients. Baking in the oven makes the pancakes more diet-friendly while preserving their juiciness and softness. They can be complemented with grated dark chocolate or sesame seeds for added texture and a slight bitterness, creating a perfect balance of flavors. These pancakes are ideal for breakfast or a healthy snack, providing pleasant satiety and energy for the whole day.
