Honey Tips

Honey Is Magic

In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.

Directions

In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, honey, lemon juice, zest, oil, 3 egg yolks, baking powder, flour and salt. Blend until smooth. Pour into a bowl.
Beat egg whites just until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold into batter until well incorporated.
Heat a greased griddle over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles on surface. Pour batter, 1/3 cup at a time onto surface. Cook approximately 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Serve topped with fruit.
