Ingredients
Let’s dive into the ingredients list, which is as straightforward as the recipe itself. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored depending on your preference)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk (or a bit more if needed to reach desired consistency)
- Butter or oil for cooking
If you’re feeling adventurous, try swapping out the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor or using honey instead of sugar for natural sweetness. These pancakes are all about making the recipe your own!
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! Here’s how you can whip up these delicious pancakes:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. These dry ingredients form the base of our fluffy pancakes.
- In another bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk until smooth and fully integrated. This mixture should remind you of the creamy textures I adored watching my abuela create.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently combining them with a spatula. Be careful not to overmix—lumps are perfectly fine and will ensure fluffy pancakes.
- Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.
- For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm, topped with your favorite fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy the delightful tang and fluffy texture!
