Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Printable)
Light, airy pancakes with juicy blueberries and creamy Greek yogurt for protein boost and tangy flavor.
# What You Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup (125 g) 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 - 3/4 cup (180 g) plain Greek yogurt
07 - 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2%)
08 - 2 large eggs
09 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled
10 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
→ Add-ins
11 - 1 cup (150 g) fresh blueberries (or frozen, not thawed)
→ For Cooking
12 - Butter or oil, for greasing the pan
# How-To:
01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until thoroughly blended.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
03 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Stop mixing when a few lumps remain—overmixing creates tough pancakes.
04 - Gently fold blueberries into the batter using a spatula, taking care not to crush the fruit.
05 - Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with butter or oil.
06 - Drop approximately 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form across the top and edges appear set.
07 - Turn pancakes and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and completely cooked through.
08 - Continue with remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the pan as needed to prevent sticking.
09 - Serve pancakes warm, topped with maple syrup, additional fresh blueberries, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The Greek yogurt makes these incredibly fluffy while adding protein that keeps you full all morning
- They come together in under 30 minutes but taste like something from a fancy brunch spot
02 -
- Overmixing the batter makes tough, chewy pancakes, so stop as soon as the flour disappears
- Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking gives you fluffier results
03 -
- Test your pan temperature with a droplet of water, it should sizzle gently but not violently
- Use an ice cream scoop for perfectly portioned pancakes every time
