Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Printable)

Fluffy, tangy pancakes enriched with Greek yogurt and loaded with fresh blueberries.

# What You'll 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 plain Greek yogurt
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 1/4 cup milk
09 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
10 - 2 tbsp melted butter

→ Add-ins

11 - 1 cup fresh blueberries

# How To Make It:

01 - In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well blended.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth and creamy.
03 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined. Take care not to overmix—small lumps are acceptable.
04 - Gently fold blueberries into the batter, being careful not to crush them.
05 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush with butter to coat the surface.
06 - Pour approximately 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on surface and edges appear set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
07 - Carefully flip pancakes and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
08 - Continue cooking remaining pancakes, adding more butter to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking.
09 - Serve pancakes warm. Optional toppings include additional Greek yogurt, fresh blueberries, and maple syrup.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • The tang from Greek yogurt balances sweet maple syrup without needing much sugar in the batter itself
  • These pancakes stay fluffy for hours instead of deflating like traditional buttermilk versions
02 -
  • Overmixing makes pancakes tough and dense, so stop as soon as the flour disappears
  • Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking gives the flour time to hydrate fully
03 -
  • Test your pan by flicking water droplets onto it, they should dance and evaporate
  • Keep finished pancakes warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the rest
