Step-by-Step Instructions for McGriddle Bites

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of oat flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt until well blended.
  • In another bowl, add ½ cup of milk, ½ cup of Greek yogurt, 4 eggs, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  • If using a protein source, fold it into the batter until evenly distributed.
  • Preheat your non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes. Lightly grease it.
  • Pour a small amount of batter onto the skillet to form each bite-sized pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Gently flip each McGriddle Bite and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove the McGriddle Bites from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter.
