Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Print Version)

Light, fluffy pancakes with juicy blueberries and creamy Greek yogurt tang—perfect for breakfast.

# 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 Cook:

01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until evenly distributed.
02 - Whisk Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until completely smooth.
03 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter should remain slightly lumpy; avoid overmixing.
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 - Scoop ¼ cup batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on surface and edges appear set.
07 - Carefully flip pancakes and cook an additional 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
08 - Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking.
09 - Serve pancakes immediately while warm, accompanied by maple syrup, extra Greek yogurt, or fresh blueberries.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt creates the most tender crumb while adding protein, so you do not feel sluggish afterward
  • Blueberries burst in every bite, creating little pockets of jammy sweetness without any extra effort
02 -
  • Overmixing is the enemy of fluffy pancakes, once you no longer see dry flour stop mixing even if it looks lumpy
  • Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking gives the flour time to hydrate and results in more tender pancakes
03 -
  • Use a ¼ cup measure for consistent size, so all pancakes finish cooking at the same time
  • Wait until bubbles have formed and popped before flipping, that is how you get even browning on both sides
