Why We Love These Fluffy Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes

• The combination of Greek yogurt and fresh blueberries will tantalize your taste buds.

• Greek yogurt really helps to thicken up the batter, which leaves you with the lightest, fluffiest pancakes and also adds richness and tanginess!

Ingredients You Need for Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes Recipe

Fluffy Greek Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes Recipe

• all-purpose flour or use gluten free flour, like Bob's Red Mill or King Arthur
• baking powder - gives these pancakes a definitely fluffy lift! 
• baking soda
• salt
• granulated sugar - I used sugar-free Lakanto
• large eggs
• plain Greek yogurt - I used The Greek Gods - known for its smoother body and creamier mouth appeal
• milk of choice or buttermilk can be used if desired, I used almond milk  
• vanilla extract
• 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen - I like to use fresh, but frozen can definitely be as well. 

How to Make Fluffy Yogurt Blueberry Pancakes 

1. Preheat a large griddle or frying pan to low-medium heat.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt & sugar.
3. Whisk the Greek yogurt, milk and eggs together until mixed well.
4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the flour mixture using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Add the blueberries and fold in.  (It’s ok if your batter is a little lumpy.)
5. Lightly grease your frying pan/griddle with oil or non-stick cooking spray.
6. For each pancake, pour ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle. I like to use my ice cream scoop and then spread the pancakes out a little! 
7. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until you see a few air bubbles on the uncooked side. Flip and continue to fry for 2-3 minutes on the second side or until golden. 
8. Repeat making pancakes with the rest of the batter. 
9. Serve warm with more fresh blueberries, butter, maple syrup or whipped cream!
10. Store leftover pancakes in the refrigerator or freezer in an airtight container for 2-3 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months.

Pancake Tips

• If you want to use buttermilk instead of milk and you don't have buttermilk, you can make it easily. Just take 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice mixed into 1 cup of milk. Let the milk stand for 10 to 15 minutes, until it thickens very slightly and curdles.
• If you prefer pancakes that are a little thinner feel free to add an extra tablespoon or 2 of milk.
• If you prefer pancakes that are a little thicker, feel free to add less milk, like a ½ cup instead of ⅔ cup.
• For more add-in ideas?  Add other add-ins you love, like mini chocolate chips, strawberries, bananas, raspberries, etc!  YUM to all!
• In general, do not overmix your pancake batter too much to keep them light and fluffy! And make sure not to overmix the batter when you fold in the frozen blueberries, so they don't streak the batter blue! 

Storing Leftovers

Store leftover pancakes in the refrigerator or freezer in an airtight container for 2-3 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Just reheat in the microwave for a quick and healthy breakfast!

Why These Blueberry Pancakes Are Dedicated to My BFF

These lovelies are dedicated to my dear friend & BFF, Sarah. It's standard protocol, when Sarah happens to get a girls night out on the town, which is not very often, she likes to unwind like most of us do right? Mind you, she's crazy busy!  She's got 3 kids, a hubby, a dog, a full time job and is also attending school to get her masters, among trying to rule the world.  So yea...it's nice to unwind once in a while, right?  She's fierce, devoted to her family and one of the funniest ladies I know. She's one of my heroes!  Luv your face Sarah!  

So with that being said, at some point of the evening, after the alcohol has done it's damage, it's guaranteed there will be the start of random texts, and it's jumbled up texts that you have to decipher, which after deciphered is this, 'Make me some blueberry pancakes, B*tch!'   (I am pretty sure this came from a movie or some funny story she came up with where she got this phrase from, but it has stuck for many years and we get a big kick out of it, when it happens.)  Crazy-iness!!

So, Sarah?  These Fluffy Blueberry Yogurt Pancakes are for you my dear!  I love you! 🙂

Notes

• To make them healthier, you could use whole wheat pastry flour or white whole wheat flour. They add more nutrients and fiber, but still have the fluffy texture of refined flour. Also use gluten-free flour like Bob's Red Mill or King Arthur 1-1 flour!
• Double or triple recipe according to # of peeps!
• Make recipe with healthy sugar to cut out sugar
• Use sugar-free syrup for healthier pancakes!
