These pancakes feature an extra thick texture thanks to Greek yogurt, delivering a fluffy, tangy, and moist breakfast treat with juicy bursts of blueberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (240g) full-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup (120ml) milk (whole or 2%, almond milk for dairy-free)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined. The batter will be thick and slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
  4. Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid breaking them.
  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small pat of butter or a teaspoon of oil to coat the surface.
  6. Using a ¼ cup measuring cup or ladle, pour thick rounds of batter onto the skillet, about 3-4 inches wide.
  7. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 3-4 minutes. Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  8. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.

Notes

If batter is too thick to pour, let it rest for 5 minutes or add a splash of milk. Use a flexible spatula to flip pancakes gently once bubbles form and edges are set. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F (90°C) oven covered with foil. For dairy-free or gluten-free versions, substitute ingredients accordingly but expect slight texture changes.
