I make these Healthy Greek Yogurt Zucchini Pancakes for family breakfasts on special occasions like birthdays or first day of school holidays. These pancakes are fluffy, light, healthy and they take only a few minutes to prepare which is an added bonus!
This pancake batter is super easy to prepare but I must warn you – resist the urge to over mix! If you over mix your batter you will end up with tough, rubbery pancakes. Who has time for that?! To make these, I mix the batter together in stages. Then I simply drop spoonfuls of batter on a hot skillet and there you have it! No waiting for the batter to rest – simply mix (a little) and go!
To make my Healthy Greek Yogurt Zucchini Pancakes, you will need the following ingredients:
Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
Whisk the egg yolks, Greek yogurt, vanilla, brown sugar, and honey together in a separate large bowl.
Mix the dry mixture with the wet ingredients and stir until they are just combined. Don't worry if there are a lot of lumps in the batter.
Beat the egg whites in a stand mixer or with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form.
Fold in the egg whites to the batter. Stir well until fully incorporated.
Add the zucchini and mix until just incorporated.
Melt a tablespoon of butter in a large pan or skillet over medium heat. Drop large spoon or ladlefuls of batter on the pan. Cook each pancake for 1-2 minutes on each side until there are no more air bubbles.
Repeat the process until you have used all the batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. I love a drizzle of honey and some mixed berries.
OMG, these Healthy Greek Yogurt Zucchini Pancakes are a game changer! I whipped them up for my niece’s b'day brunch and everyone loved them. They’re fluffy and so quick to make, plus healthy! Just be careful not to over mix. Trust me, nobody wants chewy pancakes! Def my go-to now.
Perfect for my breakfast!
