Description

These Fluffy Greek Yogurt Pancakes are a delicious and healthy breakfast option, featuring a high-protein twist on classic pancakes with creamy Greek yogurt. They are easy to make, light, and perfect for a nutritious start to your day.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (plus more if needed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cooking

  • Butter or oil for cooking


Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and seasoning.
  2. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter will be thick; if it seems too stiff, add a splash of milk to loosen it slightly without overmixing.
  4. Heat skillet: Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook pancakes: Drop 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the skillet, gently spreading into circles. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface and edges begin to set.
  6. Flip and finish cooking: Flip each pancake carefully and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve: Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings for a delightful breakfast treat.

Notes

  • For a heartier texture, substitute whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
  • Add-ins like blueberries or chocolate chips can be added to the batter before cooking for extra flavor.
  • These pancakes freeze well; reheat in a toaster or microwave for a quick meal.
