I always feel like a little treat for breakfast when it comes to the weekend. Aside from a cheeky lie in, a super tasty breakfast is what I look forward to with a little more time to make something special.
I have been slowly weaning myself off the usual bowl of porridge favouring a savoury protein hit in the morning. This makes the sweetness of pancakes just like having dessert for breakfast!. They are still full of goodness and (virtually) guilt free.
Like most pancakes, the mixture doesn't pack too much flavour making them super versatile. Top them with whatever you fancy/ need to use up in the fridge!
Ingredients:1 egg
1/3 cup oats
2 tbsps Greek yogurt or quark
dash of almond milk
1/2 banana (use the other half to top!)
Topping ideas:
Berry compote- blend together a handful of berries! (add a drop of honey or maple syrup for a sweet tooth)
Sliced banana, nut butter and dark chocolate
Apple sauce and cinnamon (add raisins to the mix to complete this combo)
Greek yogurt and berries
- Combine all the batter ingredients in a blender until smooth
- Pour dollops of mixture onto a preheated non-stick frying pan
- When bubbles begin to appear on the surface, flip the pancakes using a spatula
- After another minute (or when of desired colour) pop on a plate
- Continue to do this until you have used all the batter
- Stack up the pancakes, pile on your craved toppings and enjoy!
