Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Whole milk
• 0.5 cups Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat preferred)
• 2 whole Large eggs
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In a separate large bowl, combine the milk, Greek yogurt, and eggs. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 3

Add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients, and whisk again until fully combined.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula or whisk. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the batter rest in the refrigerator overnight (minimum 8 hours). This slow fermentation develops flavors and ensures fluffy pancakes.

Step 6

When ready to cook, remove the batter from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 20 minutes.

Step 7

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.

Step 8

Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet, leaving space between each pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles start to form and the edges look set.

Step 9

Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low-temperature oven (around 200°F) if necessary.

Step 11

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dollop of butter. Enjoy!
