Ingredients
| 1 | egg, separated | |
| 1 | egg white | |
| 1⁄2 | cup yogurt | |
| 3 | tablespoons flour | |
| 1⁄4 | teaspoon vanilla extract | |
| 1 | teaspoon sugar | |
| Pinch of salt | ||
| 1⁄2 | teaspoon butter | |
| 1⁄4 | cup pomegranate seeds (or other fruit) | |
| maple syrup |
Instructions
Separate one egg. Combine yolk in a small bowl with the yogurt, flour and vanilla extract. Stir well with a fork.
Separate the second egg. In a larger bowl, beat the two egg whites, sugar, and salt until they are fluffy and hold a soft peak.
Scrape about a third of the egg whites into the yolk-yogurt mixture and stir to lighten. Very gently, fold in the rest of the egg whites, trying not to deflate them.
Melt the butter in a small nonstick pan over medium-low heat. When the pan is hot, add half of the batter. Cook 3-4 minutes, until brown, then flip and cook 3-4 minutes on the reverse side. Repeat with the remainder of the batter.
Top with pomegranate seeds and a thin slice of butter. Serve with syrup.
