1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract or vanilla paste
1cup whole milk
Instructions
Add the dry ingredients to a bowl (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt-if using). Mix with a whisk or a fork in a whisking motion. Set it aside.
To a heat-safe bowl ( I used a glass bowl) add the melted unsalted butter. Also add the eggs and whisk it with a fork until the eggs are combined with the butter.
Add the vanilla extract (or vanilla paste) and yogurt. Mix with a fork (in a whisking motion) to combine.
Also, add the milk and mix in a whisking motion to combine.
Transfer the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a fork to combine. Make sure to not over-mix or else the batter will become tough. Mix until all of the flour has been incorporated into the batter (making sure to check the bottom of the bowl as well). Towards the end, I like to use a spatula to ensure the flour is fully incorporated into the batter.
Heat the skillet, add some butter to lightly coat the pan.
Use a 1/4 cup measure to scoop the batter onto the skillet over medium-low heat. Allow it to cook until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown. Note: it might take the first batch a little longer to cook.
Carefully flip the pancakes and allow them to cook on the other side. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a baking sheet lined with a wire rack (this will prevent the bottom of the pancakes from becoming soggy). Or, may transfer the pancakes to a plate lined with a couple layers of paper towel. The paper towel might help absorb some of the moisture so the bottom of the pancakes don’t become soggy. But for best results, I recommend using a wired rack.
Add more butter, allow to melt, and add more batter to the pan. Continue this process until all of the batter has been used up.
Notes
If you don’t have Greek yogurt, you can use plain unsweetened whole milk yogurt.
