Ingredients for Greek Yogurt Pancakes

Dry Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for a healthier option)

1 tbsp sugar (or sweetener of your choice)

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients:

3/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)

2 large eggs

1/4 cup milk (adjust for consistency)

1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional Add-Ins:

Blueberries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts

For Cooking:

Butter or oil for greasing the pan

How to Make Greek Yogurt Pancakes

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients: Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Add milk as needed to adjust the consistency to a thick, pourable batter.

Step 2: Cook the Pancakes

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. If using add-ins like blueberries, sprinkle them onto the pancakes now.
Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.

Step 3: Serve and Enjoy

Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with your favorite toppings: fresh fruit, syrup, honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.

💡 Tips for Perfect Pancakes

Keep Warm: Place cooked pancakes on a baking sheet in a warm oven (200°F/90°C) while you finish the batch.

Don’t Overmix: Overmixing can result in dense pancakes. Stir until the ingredients are just combined.

Low and Slow: Cook over medium heat to ensure the pancakes cook through without burning.

Serving Suggestions

Pair these pancakes with a dollop of whipped cream for a decadent treat, or keep it light with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. Add a sprinkle of granola or chopped nuts for extra texture.
