Recipe: Orange And Yogurt Pancakes With Strawberry Jam – Nut-Free, Gluten-Free

I had to take a test bite - yum!

It just takes an extra step to elevate a dish. In this case, I added plain yogurt and orange zest to my pancake batter and topped it with my homemade strawberry quick jam. The combinations of these flavors are simply excellent. And allergen-friendly. (NB: For the dairy, feel free to substitute in your favorite dairy-free milk and yogurt options.) 

This is barely a recipe but boy, are those few extra steps worth it.

Pancakes
1 cup Bisquick Gluten-Free Pancake Mix
1 large egg
½ cup plain whole milk yogurt 
½ whole milk
1 splash oil
Zest from an orange (wash the orange rind thoroughly)

Mix all the ingredients together. If the batter is too thick, add another splash of milk. Cook pancakes as directed. Once cooked, add your favorite maple syrup and a few spoonfuls of strawberry jam. Try not to swoon.

See the flecks of zest?!

An alternate option would be to use orange-cranberry relish! Perfect if you have leftover relish from the holidays or are looking for a festive recipe for cozy weekend mornings.
