Cinnamon-Peach Cottage Cheese Pancakes

I LOVED these pancakes (found on allrecipes.com)! Bryce and Savannah had no clue there was cottage cheese in them, so I felt sucessful at sneaking in a little protein. Fresh peach syrup and some vanilla yogurt makes these as close to perfection as you can get!

INGREDIENTS
4 eggs
1 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 peach, shredded or chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 pinch salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS Mix eggs, cottage cheese, milk, vanilla, butter, and peach in a large bowl. Combine flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir flour mixture into the cottage cheese mixture until just combined. Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.

SYRUP
4 cups pureed peaches
3 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups water

Boil 5 minutes.
