Instructions
Whole Wheat Pancakes
-
Combine dry ingredients: flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder. Set aside.
-
Whisk egg, Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla together.
-
Combine wet mixture into dry mixture, and fold gently. Do not over mix. (I like to use a rubber spatula and fold the batter) It is ok if the batter is still lumpy.
-
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Pour small scoops of batter onto the skillet or griddle once warm. Sprinkle streusel on to the bottom of each pancake. I like to set extra aside for the top of the pancakes.
-
Cook until golden brown on each side flipping halfway through. Takes about 1-2 minutes on each side.
-
Coat griddle or skillet with more butter in between each batch to prevent sticking.
-
Serve immediately with syrup butter and extra streusel.
Streusel Topping
-
Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and butter.
-
Mix together with your hands or with a fork. The mixture should be crumbly and the consistency of wet sand. Set aside until ready to use.
