These fluffy apple yogurt pancakes combine the tang of Greek yogurt with the sweetness of fresh apples for a cozy, tender breakfast treat that’s quick and easy to make.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 medium apples, peeled and diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk (optional, to adjust batter consistency)

Instructions

  1. Peel, core, and dice 2 medium apples into small, even pieces (about 1/4 inch). Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (if using).
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
  5. Fold the diced apples into the batter carefully, distributing evenly without squishing.
  6. If the batter is too thick, stir in up to 1/4 cup milk to loosen slightly.
  7. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  8. Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
  9. Flip gently and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed.
  10. Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a low oven (about 200°F) while finishing the batch.

Notes

Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balance of sweetness and tang. Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Medium heat is best to avoid burning while cooking through. Batter can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before cooking. For dairy-free, substitute yogurt and milk with plant-based alternatives and eggs with flax eggs.
