-
4 panckaes
- Serves:
- 2
ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs (50 grams per egg)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⁄3 cup fresh blueberries (for garnish)
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
directions
- Add dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder and salt) to a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients (eggs, vanilla extract and Greek yogurt) until well mixed.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir together until well combined.
- Spray your pan or griddle with cooking spray and place onto stove on medium-low heat. Use a 1/4 cup to portion out pancakes that are about 4 inches in diameter.
- Cook pancakes until the bottom side is brown (about 3-4 minutes), then flip the pancakes. You’ll notice that these pancakes won’t bubble up like traditional pancakes. Leave extra room in the pan because the pancakes may splatter when you flip them.
- After flipping the pancake, cook until the other side is brown (about 2-3 minutes). Repeat with remaining batter.
- Top pancakes with blueberries, and enjoy.
