Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Fluffy Greek Yogurt Pancakes
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, and ¾ cup of milk until smooth and fluffy. Let blend for about 2 minutes. Gradually add in 1 cup of white whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of sugar until just combined.
  2. Preheat your griddle or non-stick frying pan over medium heat, aiming for about 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat with olive oil cooking spray or butter.
  3. Pour ⅓ cup of the batter onto the heated griddle for each pancake, leaving space between them. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form and edges are slightly set. Flip gently and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Once all pancakes are cooked, stack on a warmed plate. Serve immediately with your choice of toppings.
