Description

These fluffy and moist yogurt pancakes are a delightful and healthy breakfast option. Made with Greek yogurt, they offer a tender texture and a subtle tang that sets them apart from traditional pancakes. Quick and easy to prepare, they are perfect for a nutritious morning treat.


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 olive oil
  • 120 g whole milk


Instructions

  1. Whisk the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, egg, and olive oil until smooth.
  3. Add milk: Pour the whole milk into the wet mixture and whisk until fully combined.
  4. Combine wet and dry: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure the batter is evenly mixed.
  5. Heat the pan: Preheat a non-stick large pan or hot griddle over medium-low to medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of oil.
  6. Cook the pancakes (first side): Pour batter in 2- to 3-inch portions to form pancakes. Cook 3 to 4 pancakes at a time. Cook until the bottom edges begin to set and appear cooked.
  7. Flip and cook the other side: Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula. Cook until the edges look completely dry and the pancakes are cooked through. Remove from the pan.
  8. Repeat cooking: Continue cooking the remaining batter in the same manner, maintaining the heat at medium-low.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for best texture, but you can substitute with any milk of your choice.
  • Ensure the pan is well-heated and lightly greased to prevent sticking.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda for proper leavening.
  • This recipe makes about 14 pancakes of 3 inches each—perfect for a family breakfast.
  • Serve with fresh fruits, syrup, or your favorite toppings for a complete meal.
