Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat or low-fat)
- 1/2 cup milk (or almond milk for a dairy-free option)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, if out of season)
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar (if using). Whisk until well blended.
- In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: Greek yogurt, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the skillet, leaving space between each pancake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a low oven (around 200°F or 90°C) while repeating with remaining batter.
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and add a pat of butter on top if desired.
- Drizzle with maple syrup, and consider adding a dollop of Greek yogurt and extra blueberries for presentation.
- For added flair, sprinkle with powdered sugar, chopped nuts, or fresh mint leaves.
- Serve with fresh fruit or juice for a complete meal.
Notes
- Ensure your baking powder and baking soda are fresh for the best rise.
- Letting the batter rest for 5-10 minutes can enhance fluffiness.
- Feel free to customize with other fruits or toppings as desired.
