Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 large egg s
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon sal t
  • 1/4 cup skim milk

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
  3. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula until just combined; do not overmix to avoid gluten development.
  4. Incorporate the skim milk one tablespoon at a time if the batter is too viscous to pour.
  5. Preheat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  6. Portion 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake, leaving space for expansion.
  7. Cook for approximately 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear dry and set.
  8. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until the center is cooked through and the exterior is golden brown.
