Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degree F. Lightly coat two 8-oz ramekins (4-inch diameter) with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg substitute, flour, milk, oil, vanilla, and salt until smooth. Pour half the batter into each ramekin. Set the filled ramekins on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffy. Remove from the oven. Using the tip of a knife, gently pierce each pancake in one place. Allow to stand for 5 minutes so you don't burn your fingers when handling the ramekins.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, gently stir together the raspberries and strawberries. Spoon half of the berries over each cooled pancake, then dollop each with 1 tablespoon yogurt.

Isn’t canola oil not good particularly for diabetics? Shouldn’t we use coconut oil or something instead? Since coconut oil has health benefits instead of drawbacks

Same with flour -> whole wheat or oat flour or almond flour? Maybe a mix of oat and almond flour for a softer consistency than just almond.

Yogurt -> non-fat, Greek yogurt without sweeteners maybe plain non-fat Greek and add our own berries.

I used a large egg instead of the egg substitute and the recipe came out fine (also realized I had 6oz ramekins instead of 8oz and they worked fine). The puff is a very chewy brioche style bread that puffs up before settling on itself slightly.

Not recommended

It's not the same as the photo. It's more like a muffin. If you want the photo, use filo.
No, I don’t recommend
