Main Ingredients

2 large large eggs Create structure and richness while binding the ingredients together.
1 tsp vanilla extract Enhances flavor with a warm aromatic touch.
1 tsp stevia glycerite Provides sweetness without adding extra calories or sugar.
1 cup plain Greek yogurt Adds creaminess and protein, making the pancakes moist and tender.
1 scoop unsweetened whey protein powder Boosts protein content, perfect for a nutritious start.
1 tbsp baking powder Helps the pancakes rise, creating a fluffy texture.
1 spray avocado oil cooking spray Prevents sticking and aids in even cooking.

Preparation

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, vanilla, stevia, and yogurt until well combined.
Incorporate the protein powder and whisk until the mixture is completely smooth.
Whisk in the baking powder and let the batter rest while you heat the griddle.

Cooking

Preheat a nonstick griddle or a large skillet to medium heat and spray with cooking oil.
Using a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop, pour small mounds of the batter onto the griddle.
Cook until they bubble on top, approximately one minute, then flip and cook for another 10-20 seconds.
Move the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with foil while you finish cooking the rest. Serve immediately.

Pro tips: Use fresh ingredients, don’t overmix the batter, and top with fruit or nut butter for an added flavor boost.
