These Mediterranean Blueberry Pancakes are light, fluffy, and packed with protein from creamy Greek yogurt. Fresh blueberries burst in every bite, while olive oil, lemon zest, pistachios, and a drizzle of honey add a bright Mediterranean-inspired finish that is perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp sugar (or honey)
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 lemon (zested, optional)
- 1 tbsp orange blossom water (optional)
- pistachios (chopped, for topping, optional)
Ingredients are subject to availability at local stores. Unavailable items will be automatically substituted at best-effort.
Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the FLOUR, BAKING POWDER, BAKING SODA, SUGAR OR HONEY, and a pinch of SALT.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the EGG, GREEK YOGURT, MILK, OLIVE OIL, and VANILLA EXTRACT until smooth.
- For an optional Mediterranean touch, stir the LEMON ZEST and ORANGE BLOSSOM WATER into the wet ingredients.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix the batter.
- Carefully fold in the BLUEBERRIES.
- Allow the batter to rest for 5 MINUTES for fluffier pancakes.
- Lightly grease a nonstick skillet or griddle with a small amount of OLIVE OIL and heat it over medium-low heat.
- Pour small rounds of batter onto the hot skillet, leaving enough space between each pancake to flip them easily.
- Cook for 2–3 MINUTES, or until bubbles form across the surface and the edges begin to look set.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for approximately 2 MORE MINUTES, or until golden and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the pan again as needed.
- Serve warm with GREEK YOGURT, FRESH BLUEBERRIES, CHOPPED PISTACHIOS, lemon zest, and a drizzle of HONEY.
