Ingredients

• 240 ml sourdough starter (discard or active)
• 120 g unsweetened Greek yogurt
• 120 ml unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred milk)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 120 g oat flour
• 40 g vanilla protein powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp baking soda
• 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
• 0.25 tsp sea salt
• 1 tbsp cooking oil or butter for greasing pan

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sourdough starter, Greek yogurt, almond milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the oat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and sea salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 3

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick and smooth batter forms. If the batter is too thick, add more milk one tablespoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking oil or butter.

Step 5

Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour around 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread the batter slightly to shape the pancakes if needed.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip them carefully and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as fresh fruit, nuts, maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
