Light, fluffy, protein-packed pancakes that taste impossibly indulgent until you check the macros. Full-fat Greek yogurt is the secret ingredient: it adds tang, moisture, and leavening power all at once. Stack them high, drizzle with sugar-free honey, and scatter a few fresh berries. This is the breakfast that proves keto mornings are never about sacrifice.
