Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes

These Lemon Poppyseed Pancakes are lightened up with Greek yogurt and covered with a sweet strawberry topping!

Ingredients

  • 5.3 oz container of lemon flavored non-fat Greek yogurt, I use Oikos
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • zest from one large lemon
  • ½ cup of white whole wheat flour, you can use all-purpose or wheat, this is just my preference
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds

Optional (for strawberry topping):

  • 8 medium strawberries, sliced
  • ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, egg, honey and lemon zest and stir until thoroughly combined. Add the flour, baking soda and poppy seeds and stir until batter is mixed.
  • In a small bowl, combine sliced strawberries, lemon juice and powdered sugar and mix until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
  • Lightly mist a griddle pan with cooking spray and bring over medium heat. Scoop ¼ cup of batter onto the heated pan and use the back of a spoon to smooth it out into a flat circle. Repeat in batches (depending on how many pancakes fir on your pan at once) to form 6 pancakes. Cook on one side for 2-4 minutes until bottom is golden and pancake is “flappable.” If the batter is not firm on the bottom yet it needs more time. Once flipped cook another 1-2 minutes until golden on the other side as well. Repeat until you have 6 pancakes. Each serving is 2 pancakes with 1/3 of the strawberry topping.
