Like a gluten-free pancake and a sugary Dutch baby came together and made the best of both worlds-- lots of protein, no refined sugar or gluten, just lots of airy, date-sweetened goodness.

Ingredients
-
3 eggs
- ¾ cup plain greek yogurt
- 3 TBSP date syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups almond flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup blueberries + 1 cup for topping (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees, and place an 8 or 9 inch cast iron pan on the center rack to preheat.
- In a bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until smooth.
- Add in the almond flour, salt and baking powder and stir until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and place a pat of butter in it to grease, or spray your favorite oil, being sure to cover the sides as well.
- Pour the batter into the pan evenly, and place in the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown around the edges and a toothpick placed in the center comes out clean.
- While the pancake is baking, place 1 cup of blueberries into a saucepan over medium high heat. Gently mash with a fork or spatula, releasing the juices as the berries heat. Once the mixture is starting to bubble, reduce heat to low and continue stirring until a gooey sauce forms. You can add date syrup to taste, or set aside as is.
- Once the pancake is finished cooking, allow to cool for 10-15 minutes. Add a generous dollop of greek yogurt to the center, and then drizzle your blueberry sauce. Swirl with a spoon until combined, and add some date syrup on top if desired. Enjoy!
