Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Print View)
Light and fluffy pancakes with juicy blueberries and creamy Greek yogurt, perfect for a wholesome morning meal.
# What You'll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tbsp granulated sugar
03 - 1½ tsp baking powder
04 - ½ tsp baking soda
05 - ¼ tsp fine sea salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
07 - ½ cup milk
08 - 2 large eggs
09 - 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter, plus extra for cooking
10 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
→ Add-Ins
11 - 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
# How to Make:
01 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and blended.
03 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; small lumps are acceptable and will result in lighter pancakes.
04 - Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, taking care not to crush them.
05 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with melted butter to prevent sticking.
06 - Scoop ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges appear set.
07 - Flip pancakes and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
08 - Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed between batches.
09 - Serve warm pancakes with maple syrup, extra Greek yogurt, or fresh blueberries as desired.
# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- The Greek yogurt makes them incredibly fluffy while adding protein that keeps you satisfied until lunch
- They reheat beautifully so you can make a batch on Sunday and have breakfast ready all week
02 -
- Overmixing the batter will make these tough and rubbery so stop as soon as the flour streaks disappear
- If using frozen blueberries don't thaw them first or they'll turn your batter grayish purple
03 -
- Add lemon zest to the batter for a bright contrast to the sweet blueberries
- Real maple syrup is worth the investment here as the flavor really complements the yogurt's tang
