Protein Power Pancakes (Printer View)

Fluffy Greek yogurt pancakes packed with protein for a satisfying breakfast.

# What you'll need:

→ Wet Ingredients

01 - 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
02 - 2 large eggs
03 - 1/4 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
04 - 1 tsp vanilla extract

→ Dry Ingredients

05 - 1 cup oat flour
06 - 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
07 - 2 tsp baking powder
08 - 1/4 tsp salt
09 - 1 tbsp sweetener of choice (optional)

→ For Cooking

10 - Butter or oil for greasing the pan

# Method:

01 - In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
02 - In a separate bowl, combine oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and sweetener if using. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
03 - Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. The batter should remain slightly thick with some lumps—do not overmix as this can make pancakes tough.
04 - Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot. Lightly grease with butter or oil, using just enough to coat the surface.
05 - Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until small bubbles form across the surface and edges appear set.
06 - Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and completely cooked through. Transfer to a serving plate.
07 - Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between batches. Serve immediately with desired toppings while warm.
