Instructions

In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Mix in cottage cheese, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; avoid over-mixing.

Pour batter onto the griddle using a ladle; cook until bubbles form on top (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook until golden brown.
Serve warm with banana slices and maple syrup.
