Start your morning with these light and fluffy pancakes that combine the tangy goodness of Greek yogurt with hearty oats for a protein-packed breakfast that’ll keep you satisfied for hours. The simple batter comes together in minutes, and these pancakes turn out perfectly golden every time – a welcome alternative to traditional flapjacks that can leave you feeling weighed down. My family has made these wholesome pancakes our Saturday morning tradition, topped with fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup, and they’ve become our go-to breakfast when hosting weekend brunches or treating overnight guests to something special.

  • 1 1/4 Cups rolled oats (use gluten-free if required)
  • 1/2 Cup full-fat plain/vanilla greek yogurt
  • 1/2 Cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk (or other milk alternative)

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients (except mix-ins) to a blender and blend on high for 30-60 seconds until smooth. Let batter rest for 10 minutes to thicken.
  2. Heat a griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with butter or olive oil.
  3. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto heated griddle. Add 5-6 blueberries or chocolate chips to each pancake immediately. Cook 2-4 minutes until bubbles form at edges.
  4. Flip pancakes and cook until golden brown underneath. Reduce heat to medium-low if pancakes brown too quickly or griddle starts smoking.
  5. Wipe griddle clean between batches if needed, reapply oil, and continue cooking remaining batter. Makes 6 pancakes total (3 per serving).
