Apple Banana Greek Yogurt Pancakes
Ingredients:
- Apple: 1, peeled and grated, or 100ml applesauce
- Greek Yogurt: 300ml
- Wholemeal Flour: 80g (about 2/3 cup)
- Oil: For cooking
- Banana: 1, mashed
Directions:
Prepare the Ingredients:
If using an apple, peel and grate it. If using applesauce, measure out 100ml.
Mash the banana in a small bowl.
Mix the Batter:
In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and mashed banana. Stir in the grated apple or applesauce.
Gradually add the wholemeal flour, mixing until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick but still pourable.
Cook the Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.
Pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet, forming pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Serving Suggestions:
Top with a handful of fresh berries or sliced banana for added flavor and nutrition.
Drizzle with a bit of maple syrup or honey for extra sweetness.
Serve with a side of yogurt for added creaminess.
Cooking Tips:
Ensure the skillet is well-heated before adding the batter to achieve golden-brown pancakes.
For fluffier pancakes, let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking.
Adjust the consistency of the batter by adding a bit more flour if it’s too runny or a bit more yogurt if it’s too thick.
