Greek Yogurt Pancakes are a healthier twist on traditional pancakes. These fluffy, protein-packed pancakes are made with creamy Greek yogurt, offering a slightly tangy flavor and a light texture. Perfect for breakfast or brunch, they pair beautifully with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt on top.

 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)
  • 1/4 cup milk (adjust for desired consistency)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar (if using).
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients:
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Mix the Batter:
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter will be thick.
  4. Heat the Pan:
    • Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Cook the Pancakes:
    • Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter if needed.
    • 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, or until golden brown.
  6. Serve:
    • Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Adjust the milk amount to achieve your desired batter consistency; thicker batter makes fluffier pancakes.
  • For added flavor, fold in blueberries, chocolate chips, or a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
  • These pancakes can be made gluten-free by substituting the flour with a gluten-free blend.
