There’s nothing quite like waking up to a stack of warm, fluffy pancakes, and these yogurt pancakes take it to the next level! The addition of yogurt makes them extra tender and gives them a slight tang that balances beautifully with maple syrup or fresh fruit.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (240g) plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
- ¼ cup (60ml) milk (adjust as needed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Prepare the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix—a few lumps are okay! If the batter seems too thick, add a splash more milk.
- Cook the pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve: Enjoy warm with your favorite toppings—maple syrup, fresh fruit, a dollop of yogurt, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Tips for the Best Pancakes:
- For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- If using Greek yogurt, you may need to add an extra splash of milk to thin the batter slightly.
- Don’t press down on the pancakes while cooking—this keeps them light and airy.
Enjoy your fluffy yogurt pancakes and start your day with a delicious bite! 🥞✨
