Dannon® Oikos® Traditional Greek Yogurt is a great choice for this easy pancake recipe. Not only is the unsweetened, plain flavor very versatile for baking and all types of recipes, the flavored options are really something special – like zingy Key Lime, Banana Cream, Lemon Meringue, and more!  Each 5.3 oz. serving has 150 calories and 11 g of high-quality protein — which is super important to me, as I’m always trying to boost up my protein intake throughout the day.

Another way to enjoy Dannon® Oikos® Traditional Greek Yogurt is as a simple snack topped with berries and nuts of your choice – this is often my “second breakfast” or bedtime snack. I always have a half-dozen of various flavors kept in the fridge to keep the hangries away.
