It’s been a little while since I’ve done a new recipe so I’m super excited to share this one with you guys! My most delicious, fluffy and indulgent pancakes yet! I’ve made them Gluten-free so they be can enjoyed all round! Using greek yoghurt as the base creates an amazing, piled high stack of thick but light on the inside, heavenly pancakes that absorb all the lemon flavours and honey drizzle oh so well!

The chia seeds give a welcome crunch and adds texture, as well as packing them full of protein…

I teamed up with RedTag to create this recipe for a healthy and delicious start to the day, be it after a workout or for a weekend feast (or an afternoon snack if you get as addicted to them as I have!).  The protein content in these pancakes is just what you need to fuel the day, there’s over 35g of protein from the greek yoghurt and chia seeds alone which is great for levelling out blood sugar levels during the day, reducing snack cravings and helping your muscles repair.

Try them NOW, you won’t regret it! All the homeware and cooking utensils are from RedTag and you can find all the details for them here. Here’s the cooking steps in pictures but feel free to print off the recipe from the instructions at the bottom :)

Enjoy!

Step 1: Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl until fully combined.

Step 2: Stir the lemon juice and milk together in a separate bowl, set aside.

Step 3: Combine the greek yoghurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla together and then whisk in the milk-lemon mixture until smooth.

Step 4: Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix, the batter should be thick.

Step 5: Place the coconut oil in the nonstick pan on a medium heat and once all melted, dollop a heaped tablespoon of the mixture into the pan, neatly shaping it into a circle.

Step 6: Cook for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and serve hot!

Drizzle with honey and top with fresh berries!
