Sometimes you're just in the mood for a big stack of fluffy pancakes. To make you feel a little less guilty try these healthier pancakes made with greek yogurt, almond milk and whole wheat flour.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 4 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 Tablespoon sugar

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any other variety of milk)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup plain 2% Greek yogurt

  • Maple syrup, for serving

  • Fruit, for serving

 

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs and vanilla extract. Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and stir just until combined. Add the yogurt and stir.

3. Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and spray it well with nonstick cooking spray. Working in batches, spoon a quarter cup of the batter onto the pan for each pancake and cook just until bubbles form around the edges of each pancake, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook for 90 seconds more. Transfer the pancakes to a warm plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.

4. Serve the pancakes topped with maple syrup and fruit.
