Coconut Greek Yogurt Pancakes

For those of you that weren't to keen on my banana pancakes, I suggest you try this more conventional pancake recipe.  The special ingredient - Greek yogurt - allows you to add some custom flavor to your breakfast.  I've tried these light and fluffy pancakes in strawberry, vanilla, and cherry but I'm crazy for coconut!

Greek Yogurt Pancakes
 Serves: 2-3
Ingredients
  • 6 oz. 0% coconut Greek yogurt (or your favorite flavor)
  • 1 egg white
  • scant 1/3 cup coconut flour (or whole wheat pastry flour)
  • 1 t baking soda
  • 1 t coconut/vanilla extract (optional but necessary if using plain Greek yogurt)
  • Garnish: 1 T chia jelly and unsweetened shredded coconut
Directions
  1. Stir the yogurt until it’s smooth and creamy
  2. Crack the egg white into the yogurt and stir to combine until the mixture is pale yellow
  3. Stir in the coconut/vanilla extract; if using
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda
  5. Pour yogurt/egg mixture into the bowl with the flour and baking soda; stir to combine
  6. Heat a griddle to medium-high heat and spoon out 4 equal portions onto the griddle
  7. Cook until the pancakes start to bubble then flip and continue cooking until both sides are golden brown
  8. Serve with chia jelly and shredded coconut
