Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Print Version)

Light and fluffy pancakes with Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries

# What You Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tbsp granulated sugar
03 - 1 tsp baking powder
04 - 1/2 tsp baking soda
05 - 1/4 tsp salt

→ Wet Ingredients

06 - 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat or low-fat)
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 1/4 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
09 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
10 - 2 tbsp melted butter (plus more for cooking)

→ Add-ins

11 - 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, not thawed)

# How-To:

01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until thoroughly blended.
02 - Whisk Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter in a separate bowl until completely smooth.
03 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—a few small lumps are fine.
04 - Gently fold 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.
06 - Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on surface and edges appear set, approximately 2–3 minutes.
07 - Flip pancakes and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
08 - Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed between batches.
09 - Serve warm pancakes topped with extra Greek yogurt, fresh blueberries, and maple syrup if desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt creates the most tender crumb while keeping things surprisingly protein packed
  • Fresh blueberries burst in every bite creating little pockets of jammy sweetness
  • The batter comes together in under ten minutes for those urgent breakfast cravings
02 -
  • Overmixing is the enemy of fluffy pancakes so stop as soon as the flour disappears
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for the best texture
  • Frozen blueberries will bleed purple streaks into the batter and this is completely normal
03 -
  • Let your pan come to temperature fully before adding any batter
  • Use a measuring cup to pour the batter for evenly sized pancakes
  • Keep the heat on the medium side so they cook through without burning
