Inspired by classic diner stacks but enriched with creamy yoghurt for extra tenderness, these Greek yoghurt, American-style pancakes are perfect for both sweet and savoury twists.

  • 120g Plain Flour
  • 30g Granulated Sugar
  • 1 ¼ tsp Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp Bicarbonate Soda
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • 230g Full Fat Greek Yoghurt
  • 85g Whole Milk
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 30g Melted Unsalted Butter
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract/Paste
  • 1/2tsp Cinnamon

  1. Sieve the flour, baking powder, bicarb, salt and cinnamon into a bowl.
  2. Into another bowl, combine the yoghurt, eggs, vanilla, and milk and whisk until combined.
  3. Then pour the egg/yoghurt mixture into the flour mix and fold in together, till the texture forms a smooth batter.
  4. Pour in the butter and fold in once again until silky.
  5. Heat up a fry pan on a medium heat and add a drop of veg oil into the pan (this will help the pan cakes not to stick.
  6. Once golden brown on each side, they are ready to serve.

If you prefer savoury, leave out the sugar and vanilla. Add a bit of cracked black pepper and serve with crispy bacon and Emmental cheese.
