Greek Yogurt Oat Pancakes

For the Pancakes:

Instructions:

1. In a blender, combine all ingredients until smooth. Heat a griddle or large non-stick over medium heat. Spray with a non-stick, all-natural cooking spray.
2. For best results, allow pancake batter to sit and thicken about 5 minutes while griddle is heating.
3. Pour about ¼- ½ cup of batter onto griddle. Flip when bubbles on top burst, about 5 minutes. Cook for another couple of minutes and until pancakes are golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
4. While pancakes are cooking, stir Greek yogurt sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Sauce recipe makes 2 servings.
5. Divide pancakes and sauce recipe into two servings and enjoy!
