Instructions

Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and milk until the mixture is well combined and fluffy. Next, add the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar if using. Whisk everything together until a smooth batter forms without lumps.
Cook the Pancakes: Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Pour approximately ⅓ cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake. Cook until you see small bubbles forming and popping on the surface, then carefully flip the pancake. Continue cooking on the other side until it turns golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your favorite accompaniments such as fresh blueberries, maple syrup, extra Greek yogurt, orange zest, or nuts for added flavor and texture.

Notes

For best results, do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.
You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.
The sugar is optional depending on your taste preference; alternatively, use honey or another sweetener.
Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
Use a non-stick pan or griddle to ensure easy flipping and prevent sticking.
