# Ingredient List:

→ 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 It:

01 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well incorporated.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until completely smooth.
03 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Small lumps in the batter are perfectly fine.
04 - Gently fold the blueberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
05 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush the surface with butter to prevent sticking.
06 - Scoop ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the preheated skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles form across the surface and the edges appear set.
07 - Flip each pancake and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and completely cooked through.
08 - Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed to prevent sticking.
09 - Serve the pancakes warm, accompanied by maple syrup, extra Greek yogurt, or fresh blueberries as desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The Greek yogurt creates an incredibly tender crumb while adding protein that keeps you satisfied
  • Blueberries burst in every bite, creating those beautiful purple streaks that make pancakes feel special
02 -
  • Overmixed batter makes tough pancakes, so stop mixing as soon as you no longer see dry flour
  • Letting the batter rest for just 5 minutes before cooking makes for even fluffier results
03 -
  • Room temperature ingredients blend more smoothly and create a more uniform batter
  • Test your skillet heat with a tiny bit of batter first, it should sizzle gently but not smoke
