Whisk dry ingredients together in a bowl
Blend cottage cheese, eggs, syrup, milk, and vanilla until smooth
Fold into the dry ingredients, then add in melted coconut oil and stir
Add mix-ins of choice if using (chocolate chips, blueberries, sprinkles)
Pour into preheated waffle iron (time will vary on size of waffle iron. I used a mini iron and they cooked in about 2 minutes)
Serve with butter & syrup and enjoy!
