I’ve discovered the holy grail of pancake recipes. And trust me, I would never call any recipe the holy grail of anything unless I absolutely, 100%, beyond any shadow of a doubt believed it to be true. And these, my friends, are the holy grail of pancakes: thick, fluffy, and unbelievably delicious.
Can you spot the secret ingredient? 
Flour, an egg, baking soda, and a container of Greek yogurt are the only ingredients you’ll need to whip these up in 10 minutes flat.
That’s right— you only need 1 bowl, 4 ingredients, and 10 minutes to make the best pancakes ever.
I’ve made these Greek yogurt pancakes about a bajillion times and they’re virtually foolproof. I most often use 0% vanilla Chobani, but have also tried mango and strawberry banana flavored yogurt with fantastically delicious results as well.
Try these! You’ll love ‘em. 
Greek Yogurt Pancakes
Ingredients
| Greek Yogurt Pancakes |
|
- 6 oz of your favorite Greek yogurt
- 1 egg
- scant 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Open the yogurt container and stir the yogurt until it’s smooth and creamy. Crack an egg over the yogurt and stir to combine leaving. The resulting mixture should be pale yellow in color and have a few lumps here and there.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda.
- Pour yogurt/egg mixture into the bowl with the flour and baking soda. Stir to combine. The batter will be extremely thick.
- Spoon the batter onto a sprayed griddle or pan heated to medium-high. I usually make four big pancakes, but you could also make 8 smaller ones.
- Flip the pancakes when they start to bubble a bit on the surface. Cook until golden brown on both sides and serve with butter, syrup, fruit, Nutella….anything! Enjoy!

For lower-calorie Greek yogurt pancakes, use nonfat yogurt and an egg white instead of the whole egg. Equally delicious and easy to prepare.
These sound delicious! I am going to try these on Saturday! And those pictures made my mouth water quite a bit, yum!
Let me know how you like them!
These are soo great and easy! totally impressed! I used plain nonfat greek yogurt and just added a tsp of vanilla for flavor and it was just enough. Nice work
I love that there isn’t that much flour in it and a lot of protine from the yogurt! a plus 
There’s as good as you are good looking.

These Pancakes were absolutely awesome. My husbands favorite breakfast is pancakes and I’ve never been a huge fan of them but I will eat one if I’m making them for him.
They were quick and simple to make and he didn’t even notice that I didn’t put choc chips in them. (apparently he can’t eat pancakes without them) He Never made one mention of it, just kept saying they were really good.
Thanks for sharing the recipe. I use a lot of greek yogurt in my cooking so this will be a nice additions to the file.

Can the flour be substituted with rice flour or another gluten free flour?
I used nonfat greek yogurt, two eggs, and brown rice flour. I beat the egg whites until foamy, and gently added them last. Dropped a few small blueberries in while they were cooking on the first side. They were light and great with a drizzle of maple syrup. I’d never have known they were healthy, and the texture is much more like ‘real’ pancakes unlike some cottage cheese pancakes I made. Thanks for the recipe!
All your photos always look so delicious. And I definitely want to try this recipe!
Great photo! This recipe sounds awesome.. and so easy. How do you think they would turn out using whole wheat flour?? My experience with using wwf in pancakes is they always turn out to be incredibly dense.
I’ve actually never used whole wheat flour. Sorry!
These were really good. The first time I tried them, I followed the directions exactly, and they were very good but took a while to cook all the way through because they were very thick and didn’t spread well. I just made them again with whole wheat flour and the first one didn’t work well, dense and just didn’t work. I added a splash of milk to the remaining batter and they were perfect! The yogurt kept the whole wheat flour from making the pancakes too dense. I’m sure I’ll be making them again!
Thanks for the comment Michelle! I was wondering the same thing and I’ll definitely try it with ww flour and milk on Saturday.
I bet they would be great if you used a splash of vanilla almond milk to thin out the batter. I’m going to attempt these using 1/2 white & 1/2 wheat flour..my husband isn’t completely on the healthy band wagon and I’d hate to scare him with such healthy pancakes.
Try white whole wheat flour..still whole wheat, just a different type of wheat so it’s lighter and helps with the density issue. I’ve been using it in all my baked goods, and they turn out great!
Sometimes it’s better to do half WW and half white. I have run into problems with all WW coming out very thick. If you use all WW it’s probably best to thin the recipient with milk, almond milk, or buttermilk.
I must try these recipes. Do you have a FB page?.would enjoy following you!
Not yet, but I’ll be sure to post a link once I’ve made one! Thanks for stopping by!
These look amazing! Have you tried using wheat flour?
Tried this recipe today as I had a craving for nice chunky pancakes but didn’t want to splurge on fatty ingredients. Worked a treat!
I altered the recipe slightly and added fruit (I’d really suggest adding blueberries if you make them again, it’s so yummy when they burst!).
Gave you credit on my blog where I tried them :] Thanks so much for posting!
It’s shrove, aka, pancake Tuesday today… This is sooo my dinner tonight. Glad to have come across your recipe!
the first go around i made these with Peach chobani and all purpose flour.. super tasty! however i couldn’t really taste the peaches..? perhaps too mild of a fruit?
Anywho.. I just attempted a Healthier version this AM.. i substituted the all purpose flour with whole wheat flour and doubled the baking soda (as whole wheat flour is more dense and the pancakes would not rise much). I used Honey Chobani, and added 1 tbsp of Golden Flax-seeds, and ground cinnamon. Results: very dense pancakes..lol. Soo.. i would suggest and what i will probably do next time is do 1/4 cup all purpose flour, 1/4 cup whole wheat flour.
fun and easy recipe to make adjustments.. 2 of my favorite things in the world.. pancakes and greek yogurt!!! say whatttttt?
)
I made these over the weekend for my family. I used whole wheat flour and vanilla Greek yogurt. They were amazing! I will be making these again. Thanks!
Oh what a wondrous, fluffy batter this makes. It practically starts rising even in the mixing bowl! I love pancakes. This recipe is a keeper. Lovely blog, Paige.
Just made these, they’re AMAZING!
Just made these, they’re AMAZING!
I tried these this morning, they weren’t cake-like, like the pancakes that I was use to. These were more dense and chewy.. and yet very tasty. I added a little bit of vanilla and a table spoon of sugar in mine, Topped it off with strawberries and whipped cream. Great recipe!
I made these with strawberry banana Chobani, and coconut oil in the pan. FAN.TAS.TIC. Making them again right now. Thanks so much for the recipe!
Found this recipe on Pinterest and tried them over the weekend. You are so right… hands down best pancakes ever. The slight tang of the yogurt makes them extra delicious. I followed the recipe to a T, using Greek Gods Vanilla/Cinnamon/Orange yogurt, and they were perfect.
Thank you so much for sharing!
These were so good. I used whole wheat flour and some blueberries. Delicious!
Really good! Made them with my 3 & 4 year old daughters for lunch. We used plain greek yogurt and white flour. I was afraid they might be a little too sour for my kids taste, so I added a splash of vanilla. One ate them with syrup and the other with Nutella. Both declared them good and the recipe was so easy, they got to help make them. Next time I will probably try making them with my wheat flour and see what happens. Thanks for the recipe!
We took the recipe and changed it a bit. Gluten free and healthier for you than wheat flour.
2 cups oat flour
2 cups of whole or 2% FAGE Greek Yogurt
1 cup of milk or 2% milk
1 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp salt (optional)
Makes 16 pancakes
7g of protein per pancake
Note: If you use fat free yogurt and/or fat free milk, it is advised to add 1 – 3 tsp of cooking oil (sunflower preferred). Otherwise they will be dry.
Make sure griddle is hot and dusted with non-stick cooking spray. Make a small pancake to prime the cooking surface.
Forgot to list the 4 eggs to revised recipe. Sorry!
4 eggs
2 cups oat flour
2 cups of whole or 2% FAGE Greek Yogurt
1 cup of milk or 2% milk
1 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp salt (optional)
I made these this morning for my husband and mom. They were so good! Thank you for sharing your recipe. I am happy to find a healthier alternative to regular pancakes because I LOVE pancakes!!
I’m doing Weight Watchers and LOVE these as a breakfast treat. I got 5 pancakes out of a batch, and each is just 2 points plus! I used 0% plain chobani and threw in a sprinkle of sugar and splash of vanilla. Fluffy and creamy — kids loved them (as did the grown ups). The best part is, the yogurt gives them a great dose of protein! Love this! Thank you!
…stir to combine leaving.
not sure what is meant here. makes no sense.
i’ve made pancakes similar to these when i had yogurt and was out of milk. they are very good. sort of a buttermilk pancake variant.
I stumbled onto your delicious recipe via pinterest. It’s very tempting – so simple and the pictures tell me that something yummy can result! I’ve not made American style pancakes very often, I need to practise…even though I’ve only just had lunch a little while ago….. Thanks for sharing!
These were delicious! Tasted just like normal pancakes! Absolutely loved them
[...] cups of margarine. oh, paula! oh! also! do make cilantro and lime quinoa, mac and cheese cups, and greek yogurt pancakes! [...]
After suggestions below I made these protein packed pancakes using equal parts w.wheat and a.p flour. Fat free plain greek yogart. Added 1 1/2 t. Sugar and 2t. of milk. I think they turned out great! Next time I may add vanilla, agave instead of sugar and some cinnamon. Will make again!! 2 old year ate them up! Served with honey and a dollop of Greek Yogart.
these didn’t work for me. too thick batter would burn on outside before done on inside. tried adding water to thin out like regular batter but still no luck. Also needed a pinch of salt. won’t be keeping this one.
Try it this way…
4 eggs
2 cups oat flour
2 cups of whole or 2% FAGE Greek Yogurt
1 cup of milk or 2% milk
1 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp salt (optional)
1 tsp of lemon juice
Hi – I love how simple this is. I changed it to be GF
1 container of greek yogurt
1/2 cup GF Bisquik
1 egg
fluffy and awesome tasting
I want to try these. If I only have plain greek yogurt, do you suggest a bit of sugar?
thanks
Delicious! I made 2 batches this morning using Vanilla Greek Yogurt. I added a pinch of cinnamon and almond flavor to one batch. The mix is pretty thick, so I added a little cream to the second batch. Both batches were flavorful, soft and chewy, with the right amount of tang. Perfect kick off for my own personal Shrove Toosday!
These are delicious! I add frozen, thawed fruit to plain non-fat yogurt and add a bit of Truvia for sweetener. Used this and followed the recipe above. Spread sugar free raspberry jelly on top! YUM!!! Thanks!
These are good, I have tried them with whole wheat flour and regular white flour.. I use one container (7oz) of Fage 2% greek yogurt, but the only issue I have is that I can NEVER get 4 pancakes out of one batch.. the most I get is 3 small/med pancakes. If I double the recipe I get 6. The batter is super thick and a bit hard to cook, but I like the added protein.
Thanks for the recipe!

Wow these sound GREAT!!!!! can’t wait to try them
I will definitely try these; they look absolutely delicious!
Paige you seem to have so many good ideas! Why did you stop posting?
Just tried these. They are delicious and my son loved them!!!! Will be trying with different flavored yogurts. Thanks for the new recipe!
Made these this morning. I used nonfat greek yogurt, 1/4 c. egg beaters and a splash of almond milk to help thin out batter. Loved them. I also put some blueberries in my batter.
6 good size pancakes and yes, I ate them all. So yummy. Greek yogurt my new favorite ingredient . Thanks for the recipe!!
Our son thanks you! Our family diet has changed and traditional pancakes was removed from the list.
The tweak of your recipe so far is we added a teaspoon of cinnamon and went with a 1/4 c. ground flax and 1/4 c. unbleached flour.
Future tries- will test adding almond meal instead of flour. Perhaps a try at cooking them in a waffle iron.
Did you try the recipe with almond meal? I was wanting to try the recipe, but I would need to use the almond meal, but I’m not sure how to tweak the recipe to accommodate the change.
i was just reading all the comments to see if anyone tried it with almond meal or quinoa flour.
Would this recipe work for waffles too. Usually the only difference in the batter is that waffles add oil.
I tried these with almond flour, didn’t quite hold together but tasted pretty good, will experiment with ground flax seed and coconut flour as well. Thanks!
Found these on Pinterest and made them last night.
Used nonfat plain greek yogurt and eggwhites (3 Tbsp) Added a splash of pure vanilla extract. They were delicious! Next time I will add blueberries or raspberries for extra yum. I’m currently on a no sugar clean eating diet and it was so nice to find something to “indulge” in without the guilt! I can’t wait to make these again.
I made a double batch of these this morning with Strawberry-banana Chobani, and they were great! I wanted a little extra protein kick, so I also dropped in a scoop of vanilla protein powder. In order to compensate for the extra dry ingredient, I added 3 tbsp of 2% milk, and the batter was perfect. Spray the pan, turn down the heat, and voila, amazingly healthy pancakes!
What kind of protein powder do you suggest?
I made these with egg whites and plain non-fat greek yogurt.
I added a little vanilla just for funsies, and they were great
Can’t wait to make them again!
I’ll add some fruit next time and see how it goes…
Hi Page, just having this delicious version! Thanks for sharing; the only change that I made was to add a pinch of salt, turn out really good.
Wow. Looking at the ingredients, you wouldn’t think it would work, but it was just SO DELICIOUS!
I did add just a touch of milk so it wasn’t so thick, and I added blueberries.
Also, I don’t know if it was just me or my stove or pan, but I found I had to cook them on low heat so they wouldn’t burn.
But wow, best pancakes I think I’ve EVER EATEN. Seriously. Great recipe.
Would it be possible to freeze these and pull out for an easy warm up breakfast?
These came out great! I only made small modifications. While mixing the yogurt (i used 2%) and eggs, i stirred in about 3 tbs of 2% milk, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and 1tbs honey. I also added a pinch of salt to the flour, mixed wet/dry ingredients lightly and let batter sit for a few minutes. Thanks for this recipe!

I’m going to try these for my hubby’s bday! Hope he likes them!
I just made these!
I added almond extract instead of vanilla, and a touch of honey ( i have plain 0% greek yogurt)
I did need to cook them on LOW, and it was hard to get the middle cooked, but i don’t mind too much! they tasted super awesome!
thanks for the recipe =)
These are wonderful! First time, I followed your recipe and they turned out great. The next time I used 1 carton of Greek yogurt, 1 egg white and 1/3 cup of Bob’s Red Mill organic whole grain pancake mix. These turned out even better!!!!! My favorite breakfast!
Hello, thank you for this recipe. I tried them this morning with GF flour. They were fluffy, but they had a very strong taste of baking soda. I live in France and used the baking soda that they have here, and I’m wondering if it is stronger than the american baking soda. I will try them again with less baking soda and see how they turn out. I would really like the make this recipe work for us! It is so simple and easy to make!
Can’t wait to try these!
OMG THESE ARE DELISH!!!! I think I make my pancakes big, cuz I got two pancakes out of the batter. but that is fine. I used pecans and sugar free caramel syrup and a wedge of laughing cow cream cheese as my toppings. nom nom nom
Can someone share the nutrition information for these pancakes (calories, fat, carbs, etc.)? Thanks so much!

I had some Greek yogurt to use and stumbled upon this recipe. I made them tonight. These are my new favorite pancakes. I’ll never make traditional ones ever again. These were yummy!!!! Can’t wait to make more!!!!
Loved these. I used black Cherry yogurt and sifted the flour and baking soda.. they were so good.
These are so yummy! I had plain yogurt, so I added a 1 tsp vanilla, 1 teaspoon stevia and blueberries. I used mixed wheat and white flour. I used 1 1/2 tsp baking powder instead of baking soda (in error) and they were cake-like and so delicious. I am not sharing the leftovers and hiding them in the fridge for my breakfast tomorrow! Don’t anyone tell my hubby…LOL!
Thanks so much for the recipe! I’m doing Weight Watchers and this was a nice breakfast treat when regular pancakes are a no. My cousins loved them aswell, with one of them being the pickiest eater ever. I just added some choclate chips for them.
I used Dannon Vanilla Oikos Greek Yogurt and I added a teaspoon of skim milk to help thin it out. Also I cooked on low to help with the burning of the outside before middle is done.
Again thanks for the recipe.
Could we just use Stoneyfield organic yogurt? Or does it need to be greek yogurt?

I pinned these on Pinterest this week and I made these for the family this morning.
I used:
32 oz non-fat vanilla greek yogurt
5 egg whites
2 1/2 C Self-rising flour.
I want to thank you. This recipe is as close to life-changing as a recipe can get. I will never, ever make regular pancakes again. These are extremely filling and have more protein than eggs.
For those who are on the fence about messing with your sacred Saturday morning pancakes, let me tell you how I feel about these.
I strive to eat healthy, but have such terrible cravings for some good ol’ fashioned southern home cooking. I look at recipe ingredient substitutions to make them healthier, but honestly, I don’t buy it. Making brownies with applesauce instead of oil does not make it a “healthy dish,” if you get my drift. The bottom line is, brownies aren’t good for you. If I’m gonna eat them, I’m gonna go full fat and enjoy the heck out of them. Know what I mean?
So, when I saw this, I thought it’d be another attempt to make something healthy by just ruining it. Let me also tell you that I despise yogurt (regular and greek, alike). In fact, I don’t eat anything white and creamy. No yogurt, no mayo, no cream cheese, sour cream or cottage cheese. The exception is whipped cream, but even then, I don’t want it on everything. I tried another recipe this month using greek yogurt for it’s protein content and found that if it is thoroughly cooked into a recipe, I can handle it. And so, I thought I’d give this “Holy Grail of Pancake Recipes” a try.
I’m so glad I did. The yogurt gives the pancakes a tang like buttermilk (another white creamy thing I only eat baked into something else) and makes them moist. They are a denser pancake, not light as air like the just add water varieties, but these are the most filling and satisfying pancakes I think you’ll ever try. So go ahead, add a little protein to your breakfast. You won’t regret it.

Delicious! Just made them. Used vanilla greek yogurt, a little vanilla extract and some cinnamon. A healthy alternative and my new “go-to” pancake recipe.
These are AMAZING! I also used 1/4 cup of white flour and 1/4 cup of wheat and they turned out great!
Made these today. Both kiddos, two and three, ate every last bite and begged for more. Thanks!
This was the best pancake recipe I have ever tried. Love how fluffy and flavorful they were.
These were absolutely delicious! I made the blueberry yogurt pancakes and they were a huge hit. Thanks!
Really want to try these, but my hubby is allergic to eggs. usually when I do pancakes I can do a substitute of cornstarch/water( 1Tbsp cornstarch and 3 Tbsp water). Anyone know if that would still work?
Thanks!!!
You can sub 1 tbsp flaxmeal+ 3 tbsp water for the egg.
I must have done something wrong because mine turned out terrible! Dry and cracked and they never bubbled
Mine didn’t bubbles either but I’m used to that from most pancake recipes I use now. I just peak under the side (just barely, don’t pull the whole pancake up off the griddle, every so often and flip when they are a good golden brown color.

A couple days ago my daughter saw the recipe up on the computer. She said yuck, pancakes made with yogurt? So I had to wait a couple days then make them without her seeing me make the batter!

For those that asked about coconut flour—I would not recommend it! I used half coconut/half AP flour and the batter was so horribly thick even after adding milk. It’s like the coconut flour sucks up all of the moisture from the yogurt. The pancakes also didn’t cook in the middle before burning on the outside and the texture was OFF. Definitely stick with the original recipe!
In baking, you cannot substitute coconut flour for wheat or other grain-based flours at a 1:1 ratio. They are not equivalent. That’s probably what happened, 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup of coconut flour is equivalent to 1 c of flour.

Courtney – What a beautiful wnedidg. Great video! I love the bride’s earrings. Where did she get them? I can’t wait to work with with Jennifer Mae and Chris this summer.
LOVE LOVE these pancakes!!!!! I am hooked!!! I am on Weight Watchers and have made a few changes, instead of 1 egg, I substituted Egg beaters 1/4 cup, and used King Arthur whole wheat white flour and added just a bit of fat free organic milk to thin the batter a little. They are3 points plus per serving for anyone else on WW . I also made these for my granddaughter and added mini chocolate chips she loved them!! (so did I) Thank you for the recipe, if you start a facebook page please let me know!!
Saw this recipe on Pinterest. I will be giving this a try…think I will try whole wheat flour. Hope I don’t mess it up.
I will admit to being skeptical when I saw these on Pinterest, but I made them for my husband last weekend and neither of us could believe how good they were! We added a little wheat germ, and used peach yogurt instead of plain or vanilla and they were so amazing!
These are excellent! I tripled the recipe for my big family and they all loved them. One pancake is more than enough! LOL
These are A-MA-ZING! So quick and easy to make. SO delicious. My picky eaters inhaled these…and then said they were full…which is a miracle!

Worked like a charm the first time! Tasty and fluffy. (I used Chobani 2% plain yogurt and King Arthur flour.)
This recipe was great. Instead of reg flour I use wheat flour. AWESOME!!! Just wondering how many calories are in four pancakes?
Thanks for this amazing recipe and hope to continue seeing more!!!
These pancakes looked so good I HAD to try them this morning (and double the recipe heehee). However, I found with the first batch that they needed a little extra flavor, so I added a teaspoon of salt. Deeeeelish! Especially with the chocolate chips.
I love these so much I make them every week for my boys and I when dad is working night shifts. I use whole wheat flour and add vanilla & chopped strawberries (or blueberries or rasberries, you get the idea) and only egg whites. It’s always the most quiet supper as we are all filling our faces! Thanks for the holy grail pancakes =)
I just made these and they are the best pancakes I’ve ever made at home! And very protein-packed! I used King Arthur white whole wheat flour and they were still light and fluffy. I sprinkled some walnuts and chocolate chips on top before flipping, and they were just amazing.
I found these several months ago on your wonderful site — they are AMAZING!!! i am a pancake junkie but usually have to restrain myself because they are too much carb and not enough protein and thus leave me feeling yucky for the morning. BUT these are packed with protein and energize me & tickle my taste-buds! i am delighted and make them once a week. indeed the holy grail of pancakes!!!
Paige thanks !!:) for your recipe of these pancakes! Will have to try them! I aint a pancake lover but i think ill have to try making them for my husband and children .
thanks!!
Used Fage Plain 0%, Eggbeaters, and Protein Plus Peanut Flour… These were awesome and this is coming from someone who grew up not liking pancakes at all in any form. Thanks for a simple, awesome, easily tweakable recipe… Going to try using PB2 tomorrow
What is Protein Plus Peanut Flour? Where can one get it?
I tried these pancakes today. I wanted to make them okay for Phase 3 on the HCG program so I used Almond flour. I quickly discovered that the almond flour is too thin so I added a teaspoon of coconut flour which is much better at absorbing moisture and thickening up a batter. It definitely helped but next time I’ll do a half and half mixture of both flours. I also added blueberries to the batter once it was in the pan – Yummy! I will try this recipe again – it was such a nice change to have something as “decadent” as pancakes for breakfast (I’m getting sick of eggs!). Thanks for the great recipe!
I love this recipe. I’ve been making them for the past few months and it is my favorite healthy pancake recipe! Thank you!
Hi, these pancakes look really good, can’t wait to try!!
HORRENDOUS. Followed to a T and they turned out super flat and even though they were on a low heat they burned extremely fast. Maybe its not the recipe since everyone else had success but DAMN. I hate wasting food!
Do I dare say this recipe makes AMAZING waffles too! They are light, fluffy and crispy on the outside-even using whole grain flour. Life just can’t get any better =)
I made these this morning! Amazing! I cooked them in a little coconut oil! Best pancakes ever!
This was my Saturday bkfst – don’t like yogurt but knew I can eat it in pancakes! It was very good. I would say put it on low to medium heat and don’t crowd the pan- For one person breakfast, its so much better than having to use the usual 2 cups of flour/ 2 eggs etc. Great recipe. Thank You Paige.
I love these! My new favorite! I used non-fat plain Greek yogurt, 2 packs of truvia, almond extract, egg beaters, 1/4 cup oat flour, 1/4 cup whole wheat flour, and baking soda. They turned out so good! I’m excited to experiment…oh the possibilities.
i made these and they were so great and easy! i loved it i never could find such a healthy easy recipe like this and these pancakes are so yummy! i used honey greek yogurt, but you couldnt really taste the honey but i chopped fresh strawberrys and put them in while it was cooking and at the end put nutella and light syrup on top! YUM! the only thing i was wondering is if you knew the calorie count? and thanks for the great recipe!
Just made these… Incredible!! Along with the flour and egg, I used 5 ounces (instead of 6) of plain Greek yogurt, and added about a 1/2 tsp. of vanilla and a pinch of cinnamon… I also added a little bit of unsweetened vanilla almond milk to thin the batter a bit… Ate them warm topped with some homemade berry jam… SO good! I will definitely be making these again!
[...] So today I tried an interesting recipe for Greek Yogurt Pancakes from a website called Everyday Belle. Here is the link: http://www.everydaybelle.com/2011/06/greek-yogurt-pancakes/ [...]

These were awesome! I also used the recipe for the honey orange syrup.. That was equally as awesome.
I use buttermilk pancake mix, 2 tablespoons of this & 2 of Flaxseed, 1 egg & 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt, I like to add blueberries & bananas when the batter just begins to bubble and then flip em. Just found uncle Luke’s Maple syrup over one cake! Very good!
Just made these and they came out delicious! I’ve never made pancakes from scratch before but they were super easy and quick to make. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I followed the recipe as is… using coconut flav. greek yogurt. I couldn’t taste the coconut so next time will try cooking them in coconut oil. BUT OH MY they were awesome! I can’t wait to try them as waffles! I would def. add coconut oil to the mixture for waffles but can only imagine what light, fluffy waffles this recipe would make! My first bite and thought was these aren’t sweet enough… but I have a bad tendency to want things sweet. I ate a whole one while the others were cooking and decided they are good as is but I MIGHT add a pack of splenda next time. As to someone saying theirs came out flat… either your baking soda was not good OR you way over stirred them! Like any other batter for muffins, pancakes or whatever you always leave a few lumps and never over stir because it makes them tough and sometimes flat. They were a little difficult to spread onto my pan BUT no biggie… turn down the heat and just let them cook. I ended up with 4 and half good sized pancakes! I LOVE that I can stir these up real quick for just one or two people. THANKS for the wonderful recipe!!!
Made these with oatbran and white flour and they were so amazing. All four kids and husband were in love.
Next I’m trying wheat flour. Thank you so much, not going back to regular recipe.
I have Celiac Disease so I substituted the flour for Gluten Free Bisquick….Thank you! Turned out great!!
Just made these this afternoon. Super easy and quick, which is a bonus for me, a single mom of 2! I used plain non-fat Greek yogurt and added approx. 1 teaspoon of vanilla and then topped with a little Nutella. Fabulous! I will definitely be making these again and again!
What kind of delicious pancake voodoo did you discover with this recipe? I was dubious about the recipe since it has so few ingredients but I am a believer. Sometimes recipes say they make fluffy pancakes, and then are only slightly fluffier than a crepe, but these actually hold up to that. What I was most impressed with however was that they flipped almost like a regular pancake, maybe BETTER than a regular pancake, no special flipping technique needed unlike other recipes I’ve used.
Also, my boyfriend almost got into the yogurt and egg mix. He thought it smelled amazing.
Just made them! Delicious! What a great recipe. Thank you.
Fabulous pancakes!! I used wheat flour instead. Added ground flax, splash of vanilla and a few sprinkles of cinnamon. Love them! Thank you for the recipe.
Fantastic pancakes!!!!! They tastes much better then the boxed Aunt Jemima brands. Does anyone know the calorie count for this recipe? I will definitely make them again!!
I tried these this morning and absolutely LOVED them!! Thanks for the great recipe! I don’t think I will be making anything but these for breakfast from now on.
I love this recipe! I make it all the time with whole wheat flour and throw it in my waffle maker. It doesn’t quite reach all the way to the edges, but it’s delicious and light. My family loves it!
I made these today with fat-free greek yog and dark-chocolate chips, so delicious, how I adapted this recipe and pictures here: http://pindlesblog.blogspot.fr/2013/04/low-fat-chocolate-chip-pancakes-with.html
These pancakes are absolutely fabulous! I did add and change a little; omitted the white flour and used 100% whole wheat flour, added 1/2 cup toasted pecans, 3/4 thawed blueberries, sprinkle of cinnamon, cardamon, nutmeg, and orange zest. Plus a little water to thin the pancakes. My husband and I both think these are just the best ever pancakes! Plus they are completely nutritional, and a good way to start your day… Five star recipe….
I tried to click on the five stars for this recipe, but it didn’t work for me, possible I hit the one first and it would not let me change it, but as I said definitely a five star recipe..
I just made these; they are now our new favorite pancake recipe, and I have two others that we thought were our favorites! I also used whole wheat flour and plain yogurt that I flavored myself to control sugar content. Just fabulous! Who knew pancake batter could be so simple??
Do you know how many calories are in a single serving?
Made these for breakfast this morning. Was one of the best breakfasts I have had in a long time.
These pancakes are so good… The pig I can be is waiting for my seconds to cook…
I thought I would add mashed banana next time…
Made today and used Quinoa flour. They were delis. Used Dannon lt. and fit greek yogurt vanilla. For those of you on WW…quinoa flour or unbleached flour same its. I made 6 pancakes and they are 2 pts each. Delish!!
[...] And this one just about takes the cake. The pancake that is (hardy har har). I found this recipe at everyday belle and I’ve got to say that she is a genius! I was skeptical at first because they are [...]
Yummy
These pancakes are killer!! Way better than anything bisquick can come up with. My husband just said they are better than his dads buttermilk pancakes and that says volumes! I did add a splash of milk to thin the batter a little and I’ll double the recipe for next time. Thank you!!!!!
Tried these this morning, I added 1tsp of vanilla, YUMMY!!! best pancakes i ever had.
Thank you Paige
So so good! And flippin easy! Had mine with bananas and maple syrup.. Might try honey on them next time to make it that little bit more healthy!!! Genius!
So good. I used Fage 2% do you know about how much protein is in this pancakes?
I have recently had to switch our family over to a gluten free diet and am VERY new to using gluten free flours. Do you have any suggestions for a wheat flour replacement?
I used flax meal. Really good.

I made these and was skeptical BUT I loved them. I used coconut extract and fresh unsweetened coconut in the batter. OMG so good. Can’t wait to try them again with other variations of extracts and fruit!
Just made these and they are absolutely delicious!
Made these for dinner tonight! They were so good. Thanks for the recipe!

What effect does it have on individuals because
of the free variation vs the 45 minute version?
Made them for breakfast today. I served them with butter and fresh strawberries. Perfect start of weekend
These were very good. I used peach chobani Greek yogurt, 1 egg, half cup flour, I also cut baking soda back to 1/2 to 3/4 tsp because I could tast soda in first batch. I added 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp orange zest for extra flavor.
so looking forward to trying these with buckwheat flour and coconut flour
These look so good! Just a quick question: is the 6oz by weight or volume? I’m trying to figure out how to convert and measure it, but I want to make sure I’m going by the right amount. Thanks!
I was a bit hesitant to try these out, i was thinking its too good to be true! I mean four ingredients and ten minutes to make these and thats it!?
So I started making these with my little 10 year old sister, she’s a picky eater and thought she w o wouldnt like them BUT once they were done we both tried them and were surprised at how DELICIOUS THEY CAME OUT.
WILL be making these more often and best yet theyre kid friendly! Love them! Thank you!
I’m going to attempt to make these with either almond flour or coconut flour for a completely gluten free option (I’m on Phase 3 of the HCG diet). I’ll let y’all know how well they turn out tomorrow.
Loved these!! I used regular 0% Greek yogurt to lower the sugar and they were delish!!
OMG THESE ARE FAB!!!! I will never make “typical” pancakes again!!!!!
Wow. Not sure what I did wrong but these turned out terribly. I wonder if you just can’t sub out flour for almond flour. Did everything step by step to a tee. Ended up flat as heck and tasted strongly of egg.
I just tried it with blueberry Chobani and with buckwheat flour and it turned out pretty good. The only problem was that it was hard to flip these cleanly. That might be a fault on my end though and not with the recipe.
Just made them substituting flax meal for flour. Turned out great. They really expand.
Amazing!!! Definitely going to make these again

Do you’ve any? Kindly allow me realize so that I may just subscribe. Thanks.
Totally fantastic. 6oz = 3/4 cup yogurt. I used Greek unflavoured yogurt and added vanilla essence, a little dextrose for sweetness and used 1/2 wholemeal and 1/2 plain white flour. Thank you loved them!
Just tried these this morning! Out of this world and very easy to make. My hubby loved them. Thank you!
Delicious. I added extra water to the batter to thin it out a bit and added a tablespoon of sugar and a pinch of salt. Will make again!
These were awesome! I have used strawberry and blueberry yogurt and added whole wheat flour. A new favorite for me.
Love your quick & easy recipe! I’m doing ww so instead of flour I used 1/4 cup oat flour and 1/4 cup choc pb protein. I also substituted flaxseed for the egg and added 1 TBL puree fresh strawberries to the mix. (used the rest of the puree strawberries as a topping) DELISH (9.25 wwplus pts for the whole batch) Thanks again for the recipe, these are now my Favorite pancakes!!
Just made these this morning!! Delicious.. Used wheat flour, added blueberries n sugar free syrup!! Thanks for sharing!
