- In another bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, milk (or water), eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until combined; some lumps are okay.
Cooking
- Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- Pour about one-fourth cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake, spacing them apart.

- Transfer the pancakes to a plate and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.
- Serve warm with toppings of your choice.
Notes
For best results, ensure ingredients are at room temperature and avoid overmixing the batter. Store leftovers in an airtight container.
