Description

Fluffy and moist yogurt pancakes made with Greek yogurt, creating a healthy, light, and delicious breakfast option that's quick and easy to prepare.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 25 g granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp table salt
  • 12 g baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 160 g plain Greek yogurt
  • 50 g egg (about 1 large egg)
  • 20 g oil (olive oil recommended)
  • 120 g whole milk


Instructions

  1. Whisk the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, table salt, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the plain Greek yogurt, egg, and olive oil together until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add milk to wet ingredients: Pour the whole milk into the wet ingredients and whisk until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Combine dry and wet ingredients: Pour the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredient bowl and whisk thoroughly until the batter is smooth. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
  5. Heat the pan: Preheat a large non-stick pan or griddle over medium-low to medium heat and lightly grease the surface with oil.
  6. Cook the pancakes - first side: Pour the batter into the pan to form pancakes approximately 2 to 3 inches in diameter, cooking 3 to 4 at a time. Cook on the first side until you see the bottom edges become cooked and bubbles form on top edges.
  7. Cook the pancakes - second side: Flip the pancakes gently using a spatula once the edges appear dry. Cook the second side until golden and fully cooked through. Remove pancakes from the pan when done.
  8. Repeat: Continue cooking remaining batter in the same manner, maintaining heat at medium-low to medium to avoid burning the pancakes.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for the best texture and flavor; but you can substitute with a milk alternative if desired.
  • Olive oil can be replaced with melted butter or any neutral oil.
  • Maintain medium-low heat to cook pancakes evenly without burning the outside.
  • The batter yields about 14 pancakes sized 2-3 inches in diameter.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
