Method:
1. Measure all ingredients. Having everything prepped makes it super easy and stress-free.
2. Blend your oats into a fine flour using a blender or food processor. This gives the pancakes that fluffy texture we all love.
3. Combine all ingredients in a bowl – the blended oats, protein powder, egg, yoghurt, baking powder, and also baking soda. Mix until you have a smooth, thick batter.
4. Heat a non-stick pan on medium. Pour in your batter to form small pancakes. Flip them once bubbles form on the surface.
5. While your pancakes are cooking, boil the frozen fruit gently until it softens into a juicy topping.
6. Stack your pancakes, adding a layer of Greek yoghurt between each one, then also top with the warm fruit. Drizzle any extra juice over the top for added flavour!
