Directions
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together first 8 ingredients (through pepper); set aside.
  2. In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt and egg.
  3. Gently mix wet mixture into dry mixture until just combined.
  4. Fold in carrots, cheese and onion.
  5. Preheat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat; spray with cooking spray.
  6. Working in batches, scoop about ⅓ cup batter onto preheated skillet. Form batter into 3-4" circles, pressing down slightly; cook until edges are set and dry and bottom of griddlecakes are dark golden-brown (about 3 min.). Flip griddlecakes; cook until golden-brown on the other side (about 2 min.).
  7. Wipe skillet clean; respray and repeat with remaining batter.
  8. Top griddlecakes with seasoned sour cream; garnish with microgreens. Serve warm.

Tasty Tips:

  • We recommend Kowalski's Cultivated Long-Grain Wild Rice for this recipe, but our Cracked Wild Rice will also work.
  • Minnesota Grown products are fresher by miles, which is why we recommend them in this recipe. When local options are unavailable, fresh products grown or raised elsewhere may be used.
