Make light, airy, and protein-rich pancakes using Greek yogurt. This recipe is quick to prepare and results in a satisfying breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk (any kind)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter or oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg, milk, Greek yogurt, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine. Overmixing develops gluten and makes the pancakes tough.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook the second side until golden brown.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • If you want Blueberry Yogurt Pancakes, gently fold in 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries after mixing the batter.
  • For a Lemon Breakfast Recipe flavor, add the zest of one lemon to the wet ingredients.
