Ingredients for Yogurt Pancakes
- All-purpose flour: No specialty flour is needed to make this yogurt pancake recipe.
- Sugar: Sugar helps brown the edges and makes the pancakes softer.
- Baking powder and baking soda: Both these ingredients are leavening agents that help pancakes rise and become fluffy.
- Eggs: Beat the room-temperature eggs lightly before adding them in.
- Plain yogurt: Any version of plain yogurt that contains some milk fat works for yogurt pancakes. The acid in yogurt reacts with the baking powder and soda, creating bubbles that form air pockets that make the pancake fluffy.
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips, dried cranberries, sliced bananas, chopped pecans (optional): Add any of these pancake toppings to customize the pancakes as soon as the batter is on the griddle.
Directions:
Step 1: Mix the dry ingredients
In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda.
Step 2: Add the wet ingredients
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt and water. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until the dry ingredients are just moistened.
Step 3: Cook the pancakes
Pour the batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a hot griddle coated with cooking spray, spacing each pancake a couple inches away from the others. Sprinkle in any of the optional ingredients, if desired. Flip the pancakes when bubbles form on top and the edges look firm, then cook them until the second side is golden brown.
