Why Make Greek Yogurt Pancakes?
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been searching for ways to sneak protein into my diet. A pregnancy diet often requires much more protein than the average diet. Greek yogurt is known to come packed with protein. And it’s also a healthier version of your classic pancake. This delicious take on traditional pancakes is great for both breakfast or dinner. It can be made with unflavored greek yogurt, but I highly recommend using a flavor. There are so many fun flavors out there, so you can alter it to your own taste. We chose a mixture of apple pie and salted caramel yogurt. And these greek yogurt pancakes were amazing!
We like to cook up some potatoes to serve with the greek yogurt pancakes. You could also serve with fresh fruit or any other breakfast favorite you may have.
