Orange Greek Yogurt Pancakes with Roasted Strawberry Sauce
These orange-flavored pancakes are unbelievably moist and fluffy thanks to the greek yogurt and are heavenly topped with a sweet roasted strawberry sauce!
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Set aside. In a separate medium bowl, whisk yogurt, orange juice, zest, egg, and buttermilk until smooth. Fold dry ingredients into liquid until just combined. Set batter aside for a minute while you prepare the sauce.
Make the sauce: Lay strawberries in a single layer on a greased baking sheet. Drizzle evenly with syrup and sprinkle cinnamon on top. Roast strawberries at 400F 10-12 minutes or until berries are tender and have begun to release their juices. Let cool 5 minutes then transfer to food processor and pulse several times to make a smooth (or slightly chunky) sauce. Keep sauce warm while you make the pancakes.
Cook the pancakes: Heat a nonstick griddle over medium heat. Cook pancakes by 1/4 cupfuls in batches 1-1/2 to 2 minutes on each side until golden. Serve pancakes warm with warm roasted strawberry sauce.
