Orange-Vanilla Greek Yogurt Pancakes (Whole Grain)
Yield: makes approximately 16-18 pancakes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup 0% plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fat free milk (add a few tablespoons more if batter too thick)
- zest and juice from 2 whole oranges
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
Directions:
- In a large bowl mix together flour, salt, baking powder and sugar. Add eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, orange zest and juice. Mix together well until combined. Let sit for a few minutes.
- Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat (I use my electric nonstick skillet for pancakes). Spray with nonstick spray, or lightly spread a little butter around pan (I stick a tablespoon or two on a fork and spread this way, it helps to not use more than you need). Using a 1/4 cup scoop, gently pour pancake batter into pan. Let cook until the middle starts to bubble slightly. Carefully flip and cook for a minute or two longer until pancakes are set.
You can use vanilla Greek yogurt in place of plain by omitting the 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract in this recipe. Depending on how much juice you get from your oranges, you may have to add additional milk if batter is too thick.
