Frozen blueberries are often cheaper and just as nutritious.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 1 cup of milk, then add 1/2 cup of yogurt and mix well.

Add 1 cup of cottage cheese to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.

Gradually combine the wet and dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix; it's okay to have lumps.

Gently fold in 1 cup of blueberries into the batter, ensuring not to smush them.

Preheat a griddle and add a little butter to grease it.

Using an ice cream scoop, pour the batter onto the griddle, leaving space for spreading.

Cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes, checking for bubbles around the edges, then flip them and cook for another 1-1.5 minutes until golden brown.

Serve warm with maple syrup or enjoy plain.
