Ingredients:
- 1 cup oat flour (made by blending rolled oats)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (low-fat or non-fat)
- 2 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- 1-2 tablespoons sweetener of your choice (e.g., stevia, erythritol, or maple syrup for a small calorie increase)
- Cooking spray or a small amount of oil for greasing the pan
Instructions:
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients:In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, baking powder, salt, and sweetener (if using). Mix them together well.
- Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg whites, and vanilla extract until they are well combined.
- Create the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until you have a smooth batter. Adjust the consistency with a little water or milk if needed.
- Preheat and Grease: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil, using a paper towel to spread the oil evenly and remove any excess.
- Cook the Pancakes: Pour small amounts of the pancake batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes of your desired size. Cook until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges start to look set, usually 2-3 minutes.
- Flip and Finish: Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the pancakes from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining batter. Serve your low-calorie pancakes with fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup (if desired), or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra protein and flavor.
