Ingredients
Scale
½ cup plain whole-milk yogurt (regular or Greek)
½ cupmilk
2eggs
2 tbspunsalted butter, melted & cooled (plus more for cooking)
1 cupall-purpose flour
1 tbspsugar
2 tspbaking powder
¼ tspsalt
Instructions
Mix Wet: In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt, milk, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
Add Dry: Add flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir just until combined — a few lumps are totally fine! Don’t overmix.
Heat Pan: Place a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a pat of butter and swirl to coat the pan; it should sizzle gently.
Cook Pancakes: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter for each pancake. Cook for 3-4 minutes until bubbles appear on top and the edges look set.
Flip & Finish: Flip carefully and cook for another 3 minutes, until golden brown. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven if making a large batch.
Notes
Serving Suggestions: Stack them high! Drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or top with fresh berries. They’re amazing with scrambled eggs, bacon, or a side of fresh fruit.
Tips & Tricks:
Don’t overmix! Lumpy batter makes fluffy pancakes.
Make sure your baking powder is fresh for the best rise.
Cook on medium heat and wait for those bubbles before flipping. Patience pays off!
Storage: Let leftover pancakes cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheating: Warm in a buttered skillet to bring back that crispy edge, or microwave briefly for a quick reheat.
Freezing: Flash freeze cooled pancakes on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. They keep well for up to 6 weeks!
