  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2       c            Low-fat cottage cheese
   2                    Eggs -- or substitute
   1       c            Unbleached flour
   1       ts           Baking powder
   1                    Lemon zest -- grated
                        Cranberry Sauce:
   1 1/2   c            Fresh orange juice
   2       c            Cranberries -- fresh or
                        - frozen
   1       tb           Corn starch
     1/4   c            Sugar -- up to 1/2 c

  Cranberry Sauce:

  Combine the sugar and corn starch in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  Gradually pour in the orange juice; stirring constantly. Add the
  cranberries and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat;
  stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture until
  all the cranberries have burst; about 15 minutes. Puree the mixture
  in a FP or a blender. Set sauce aside.

  Cheesecakes:

  Puree the cottage cheese in the clean blender or FP. Add the eggs
  and blend them into the puree. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and
  add the sugar, flour and baking powder; stir in well. Beat just
  long enough to produce a smooth batter. Stir in the zest.

  Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat until water dances on
  hot skillet. Drop batter by generous tb and use the back of the
  spoon to spread the batter to a thickness of about 1/4". Cook until
  top is covered with bubbles; about 3 minutes and then flip and cook
  them until the second sides are light-brown; about 1 minute more.
  Keep warm.

  Serve the griddle cheesecakes with the cranberry sauce.
