Greek Yogurt Banana Pancakes
Description
Greek Yogurt Banana Pancakes blend creamy vanilla Greek yogurt with ripe mashed banana and eggs to offer a tender and moist pancake variation. White whole wheat flour provides a mild whole grain flavor while baking soda yields lift and airiness in the batter. Cooking the pancakes on a buttered skillet or griddle develops a lightly crisp exterior contrasting their soft interior. The pancakes' mild sweetness makes them suitable for serving with various toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or nut butters, adding complementary textures and flavors.
This recipe’s use of Greek yogurt adds a subtle tang and extra richness without overpowering the result. The balance of wet and dry ingredients is designed to produce a smooth batter that spreads moderately thin yet holds shape during cooking. Popping bubbles on the surface signals when to flip the pancakes to finish cooking evenly. Overall, this recipe provides a satisfying breakfast option that leverages common ingredients and simple techniques.
Ingredients
- 12 oz. Greek yogurt vanilla flavor
- 2 egg
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
- 1 banana mashed, medium
Instructions
- Combine the greek yogurt and eggs in a medium sized bowl. Whisk to combine.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda.
- Pour the yogurt mixture over the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Add in the milk and mashed banana and mix well.
- Heat a large skillet on the stove to medium heat, or turn an electric griddle to 350 degrees. Melt a little butter in the skillet or on the griddle and scoop batter on top into desired sizes. (I use a heaping 1/4 cup scoop and spread them out a little.)
- Once tops start to bubble, flip and cook until both sides are cooked through. Serve with maple syrup, jam, almond butter, or fresh fruit.
