๐Ÿฅฃ Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup oat flour (or finely ground rolled oats)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 25g) ๐Ÿ’ช
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ยฝ tsp baking soda
  • ยผ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • ยฝ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • ยฝ cup milk of choice (almond, oat, or dairy)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup ๐Ÿฏ
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp olive oil or melted coconut oil

Optional Mix-ins:

  • Fresh or frozen blueberries ๐Ÿซ
  • Mini dark chocolate chips ๐Ÿซ
  • Chopped nuts or seeds

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿณ Step-by-Step Directions

  1. Prepare the Batter:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add Greek yogurt, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and oil. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Mix It All Together:
    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined. Donโ€™t overmix โ€” the batter should be slightly thick and fluffy. If itโ€™s too thick, add 1โ€“2 tablespoons of milk.
  4. Rest the Batter:
    Let the batter sit for 5 minutes. This allows the oat flour to absorb moisture, making your pancakes extra fluffy.
  5. Heat the Pan:
    Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
  6. Cook the Pancakes:
    Pour about ยผ cup of batter per pancake onto the pan. Cook for 2โ€“3 minutes until bubbles form on top and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook for another 1โ€“2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:
    Stack your pancakes high! Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, a spoonful of Greek yogurt, and your favorite toppings โ€” berries, banana slices, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ“
