Courgette and yogurt pancakes

These delicate courgette and yogurt pancakes can be made savoury or sweet -  they are gluten-free, healthy, delicious  and very easy to make. The savoury version is ideal as an appetizer or snack (with some toppings such as chutney and parma ham or smoked salmon and cream cheese) while the sweet version is perfect for a healthy breakfast or brunch ( served with seasonal fruit compote and maple syrup).
