Ingredients

• 100 g Rolled oats
• 40 g Whey protein powder
• 60 g All-purpose flour
• 1 tsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp Baking soda
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 240 ml Milk
• 60 g Plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tbsp Honey
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whey protein powder, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to make sure all dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then add in the milk, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and all the wet ingredients are well combined.

Step 3

Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to ensure the scones remain light and fluffy.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and add the coconut oil. Allow the oil to melt and evenly coat the bottom of the pan.

Step 5

Drop large spoonfuls (about 2 tablespoons each) of batter onto the hot pan, leaving space between each to allow for spreading.

Step 6

Cook for about 3 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface of each scone. Gently flip the scones over and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Remove from the pan and place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Repeat the process with remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the pan as necessary.

Step 8

Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, nut butter, or a drizzle of additional honey.
