These fluffy Greek Yogurt Pancakes are a delightful take on classic pancakes, using Greek yogurt instead of milk to create tall, tender, and flavorful pancakes with a perfect balance of sweetness and tang.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup water, or more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cooking

  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, white sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of all leavening agents.
  2. Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg, water, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.
  3. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Pour the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredient bowl. Stir gently until the batter is well incorporated but still slightly thick. Add additional water by the tablespoon if needed to adjust to a pourable pancake batter consistency.
  4. Heat the cooking surface: Warm a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil. Ensure the surface is hot before cooking to achieve a golden crust.
  5. Cook the pancakes: Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on one side until bubbles form and edges look set, then flip carefully and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve hot: Remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or butter.

Notes

  • If the batter is too thick, add water gradually to reach desired consistency.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or well-seasoned griddle for best results.
  • Greek yogurt adds extra protein and moisture, making the pancakes more filling.
  • These pancakes can be kept warm in a low oven while cooking the rest.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
