Ingredients
1 egg
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 apple
Instructions
Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, vanilla protein powder, baking soda, and baking powder to the egg and yogurt mixture. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
Prepare the Apples: Slice the apple into rounds and scoop out the core from each slice.
Dip and Cook: Dip each apple round into the pancake batter, coating it thoroughly. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the dipped apple rounds onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the pancake batter. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serve: Stack your apple-dipped pancakes on a plate and drizzle with maple syrup, honey, or your favorite toppings.
