Greek Yogurt Pancakes
Description
This recipe blends banana, rolled oats, full-fat Greek yogurt, eggs, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt into a smooth batter, resulting in small pancakes that cook evenly in a non-stick skillet. The oats provide body while the banana and yogurt add moisture and subtle sweetness without overpowering the mild cinnamon note.
The cooking method involves pouring batter portions into a hot pan and flipping once bubbles appear on the surface, producing pancakes with a tender interior and lightly golden outsides. The recipe yields about six small pancakes, suitable for stacking.
Serving suggestions include topping with maple syrup and fresh fruits like berries or banana slices. Leftover pancakes can be stored refrigerated up to four days or frozen for longer storage, reheating easily in a toaster or skillet.
The notes advise storing pancakes in airtight containers and provide freezing durations to maintain freshness, adding convenience for meal planning.
