Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Print Version)
Light, airy pancakes made with creamy Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries. Perfect for breakfast.
# What You Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 1 cup Greek yogurt, plain and unsweetened
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 1/4 cup milk, dairy or plant-based
09 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted plus extra for cooking
→ Add-Ins
11 - 1 cup fresh blueberries or frozen, unthawed
# How-To:
01 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
03 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold together using a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Small lumps remaining are perfectly fine.
04 - Carefully fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
05 - Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter.
06 - Scoop 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set.
07 - Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
08 - Repeat with the remaining batter, adding butter to the pan as necessary. Serve immediately while warm, topped with additional blueberries, maple syrup, or your preferred pancake toppings.
