<em>Made with Greek yogurt, oats, whole wheat flour, and not much else. Simple, wholesome, and satisfying! Recipe may be doubled.</em>
Ingredients
1 cup
All-purpose white flour
(or use a whole grain flour)
1/2 cup
Quick oats
(40g)
1/4 tsp
Salt
2 tsp
Baking powder
1 tsp
Cinnamon
(ground)
1 large
Egg
(large; or 2; whites)
1 cup
Almond milk, unsweetened
(240ml)
2 tbsp
Cane sugar
(Tablespoons packed light or dark brown)
1/4 cup
Greek yogurt, plain, 2% M.F.
(63g or use apple sauce in place of yogurt)
1 tsp
Vanilla extract, pure
(pure)
Instructions
Toss the flour, oats, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon together in a large bowl. Set aside. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. Whisk in the brown sugar and yogurt until no lumps remain. Whisk in the vanilla until combined.
Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients in. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix the batter or your pancakes will be tough and very dense. Add any mix-ins you prefer, but again – do not overmix the batter.
Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Coat generously with cooking spray, oil, or butter. Once hot, drop about 1/4 cup of batter on the griddle. Cook until the edges look dry and bubbles begin to form on the center or sides, about 1 minute. Flip and cook on the other side until cooked through, about 2 more minutes. Coat griddle/skillet again with nonstick spray for each pancake or batch of pancakes.
Keep pancakes warm in a preheated 200°F (93°C) oven until all pancakes are cooked. Serve immediately. Pancakes taste best right after they are made.
