Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oats, ground flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, honey or maple syrup, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly.
- Serve the whole grain pancakes with the blueberry compote on top. Enjoy!
Service Suggestion
- Serve the pancakes with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of toasted nuts for added protein and crunch.
- Pair with a cup of freshly brewed coffee or a glass of orange juice for a complete breakfast experience.
Notes
