Instructions
1
In a medium bowl, combine the whole wheat pancake mix, quick-cooking oatmeal, and Splenda, mixing well to ensure even distribution.
2
In another bowl, whisk together the plain fat-free yogurt, skim milk, egg white, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-blended.
3
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
5
Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium-low heat and lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray, taking care not to let it get too hot to avoid excessive browning.
6
Pour 1/4 of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake, using the back of a spoon to spread it slightly if necessary. This helps ensure even cooking.
7
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, then carefully flip it over and cook until both sides are golden brown.
