# What You'll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tbsp granulated sugar
03 - 1 tsp baking powder
04 - 1/2 tsp baking soda
05 - 1/4 tsp salt
→ Wet Ingredients
06 - 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

12 - Butter or oil, for greasing the pan
# How To Make It:
01 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
03 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are acceptable for fluffy texture.
04 - Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, being careful not to crush them.
05 - Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
06 - Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges appear set.
07 - Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes until golden brown and completely cooked through.
08 - Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary between batches.
09 - Serve warm pancakes with maple syrup, additional fresh blueberries, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
