Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain)
  • 1/4 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

Add-ins and Greasing

  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (or any oil for greasing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Tin: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin with coconut oil or line it with paper liners to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, whole wheat flour, almond milk, egg, vanilla extract, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey or maple syrup, baking powder, and salt. Stir the mixture until it is smooth and fully combined without any lumps.
  3. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the pancake batter to distribute them evenly without breaking them.
  4. Fill Muffin Tin: Evenly spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full to allow room for rising while baking.
  5. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bites comes out clean and they turn golden brown on top.
  6. Cool Slightly: Remove the bites from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin, making handling easier.
  7. Serve: Serve the pancake bites warm. Optional toppings include additional honey, Greek yogurt, or fresh berries to enhance flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Use paper liners if you want to make cleanup easier and ensure the bites come out effortlessly.
  • These bites can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
  • For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based yogurt and milk alternative.
  • If fresh blueberries are not available, frozen blueberries can be used; just do not thaw to avoid color bleeding in the batter.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to taste.
