Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.75 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well incorporated.
In another bowl, beat the egg whites until frothy, about 1 minute.
Add the Greek yogurt, almond milk, vanilla extract, and honey to the frothy egg whites. Stir until smooth.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray if needed.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges appear defined.
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of sliced almonds.
