Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 g Rolled oats
- 40 g Whey protein powder
- 60 g All-purpose flour
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 240 ml Milk
- 60 g Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp Coconut oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whey protein powder, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to make sure all dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then add in the milk, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and all the wet ingredients are well combined.
Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the scones remain light and fluffy.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and add the coconut oil. Allow the oil to melt and evenly coat the bottom of the pan.
Drop large spoonfuls (about 2 tablespoons each) of batter onto the hot pan, leaving space between each to allow for spreading.
Cook for about 3 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface of each scone. Gently flip the scones over and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the pan and place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Repeat the process with remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the pan as necessary.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, nut butter, or a drizzle of additional honey.
