Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes (Print Version)
Light and fluffy pancakes with Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries, ready in 25 minutes for a wholesome breakfast.
# What You Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1½ teaspoons baking powder
04 - ½ teaspoon baking soda
05 - ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
07 - ½ cup milk
08 - 2 large eggs
09 - 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, plus extra for cooking
10 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Add-Ins
11 - 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
# How To Make:
01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until evenly distributed.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and incorporated.
03 - Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula just until combined—some small lumps should remain. Avoid overmixing to keep pancakes tender.
04 - Gently fold blueberries into the batter, taking care not to crush them.
05 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush with melted butter to coat the surface.
06 - Scoop ¼ cup portions of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form across the surface and edges appear set.
07 - Carefully flip pancakes and cook another 1 to 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 warm with maple syrup, extra Greek yogurt, or additional fresh blueberries.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The Greek yogurt creates an incredible fluffiness that rivals any diner pancake
- These come together in under 30 minutes with ingredients you probably have

02 -
- Overmixing the batter is the fastest way to make tough pancakes, so stop as soon as the flour disappears
- Frozen blueberries work beautifully here, just add them straight from the freezer to avoid streaking
