Greek Yogurt Apple Pancakes (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ For the apple topping

01 - 1 crisp apple, diced
02 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
03 - 1 teaspoon canola oil
04 - 1 tablespoon water

→ For the pancakes

05 - ½ cup white whole wheat flour
06 - ½ cup white all-purpose flour
07 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
08 - Pinch of salt
09 - ½ tablespoon sugar
10 - ¼ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
11 - 1 large egg
12 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
13 - ¼ cup 2% fat Greek yogurt
14 - Suggested toppings: almond butter and maple syrup

# Instructions:

01 - Mix the diced apple with cinnamon, water, and oil in a small bowl. Pour into a small saucepan and cook over medium heat while preparing the pancakes. You might need to lower the heat depending on how hot your stove gets.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine both flours, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
03 - Whisk together the egg, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Slowly stir this mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined (it's okay to have some lumps). Fold in the Greek yogurt, again keeping some lumps for fluffier pancakes.
04 - Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat (or a griddle to about 325°F). Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray. Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form around the edges (3-4 minutes), then flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
05 - For a quicker meal for two, use two medium skillets to make diner-sized pancakes by dividing the batter evenly between them. This takes longer to cook but ensures both servings are ready at the same time.
06 - Divide the pancakes between two plates and top with the cooked apples, maple syrup, and almond butter. Enjoy your cozy breakfast for two!

# Notes:

01 - These fluffy Greek yogurt apple pancakes are perfect for a sweet breakfast without needing to feed a crowd.
02 - The recipe makes two generous servings with added protein from Greek yogurt.
