Directions
In a food processor or a blender, mix together the spinach, yogurt, and almond milk until smooth.
Pour the batter into a large mixing bowl, and stir in the rest of the ingredients.
Lightly grease a large skillet (or two, to speed up the process) and place over medium-low heat.
Pour 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the pan for each pancake (a 1/8 cup measuring spoon works well).
Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes, flipping with a spatula once the edges of the pancakes are no longer runny, and you can slide a spatula easily underneath.
Enjoy them on their own or serve with some honey or maple syrup. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
