Sometimes, breakfast needs to be quick, simple, and irresistibly good. These Yogurt Pancakes are a perfect solution! Soft, fluffy, and made with just a few basic ingredients, they’ll bring comfort to your mornings without any hassle.
Ingredients (per egg):
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon yogurt
- 2 tablespoons flour
- A drizzle of melted butter or oil
- A pinch of baking powder
- A tiny pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions:
- Start with the egg whites: For a fluffier texture, separate the egg and whisk the whites until they’re frothy.
- Mix the base: Gently fold in the yogurt, flour, melted butter (or oil), baking powder, and salt. Use a fork for mixing instead of a mixer to keep the batter light.
- Consistency is key: The batter should be thicker than regular pancake batter but not overly dense—just enough to hold its shape when ladled onto the pan.
- Cook to perfection: Heat a non-stick pan on medium (around 7/9 on most stoves). Drop a tablespoon of batter for each pancake, spacing them apart. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden.
- Serve warm: These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh off the stove with your favorite toppings like honey, jam, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
Tips for Success:
- Experiment with toppings: Add a drizzle of honey, a dollop of cream, or fresh fruit for a delightful twist.
- Pan care matters: Use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease the pan with butter to ensure the pancakes don’t stick.
- Adjust heat carefully: Medium heat works best to cook the pancakes evenly without burning the outside.
- Quick cleanup: Because the batter doesn’t require a mixer, you’ll save time on dishes—a win for busy mornings!
Personal Note:
These pancakes might not win awards for appearance (we’re all about that rustic charm here), but they’re unmatched in flavor and ease. They’re a favorite in my kitchen for those “instant home chef” moments when time is short, but cravings are high.
If you’re looking for a breakfast idea that’s as delightful as it is simple, give these a try. Let me know in the comments how they turned out or share your favorite toppings!
