Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes
These protein-packed Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes are filled with plump blueberries, vanilla Greek yogurt and just the right amount of flavor!
It’s just another manic Monday…wish it were Sunday!
Too cheesy for a Monday morning?
I’m not really a huge fan of The Bangles, but I do feel like this every Monday, except that I wish I could fast forward to Fridays instead. But I promise that I have something tasty to sweeten up your day. It involves, pancakes, blueberries, and more blueberries.
There’s no time for small talk today because I’m jumping right into the recipe!
I’m so excited to finally be able to share these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes with you. These protein-packed cakes are filled with plump blueberries, vanilla Greek yogurt and just the right amount of flavor. Light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh blueberries, this is the ultimate treat for when you want to indulge in a healthier breakfast.
And let’s not forget about that blueberry sauce! It’s filled with blueberries and a touch of sweetness so that you can drizzle this over these decadent pancakes and feel like you’re in blueberry pancake heaven. This sauce is so good that I drizzled it over ice cream, added it to yogurt, and even ate a spoonful (or three) with just my trusty ‘ole spoon.
The hubster and I are pancake fanatics and I wanted to create a healthier version made with Greek yogurt.
And I’m happy to report that these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce are the tastiest, lightest pancake that I’ve eaten. The vanilla Greek yogurt adds in a punch of protein, while making these pancakes extra fluffy. After all, that’s a requirement in my book! And the blueberry sauce is the perfect topping for the dish!
And like most of my dishes, these pancakes are a breeze to whip up! I made a stack of these pancakes for the hubster and I in less than 20 minutes. And the blueberry sauce can be made while you’re flipping the pancakes, so it won’t take away time from devouring these babies.
Whether you’re just wishing it was the weekend or are looking for a healthier and hot breakfast, then try these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes! Fast, easy, and so full of flavor, these will become your new favorite breakfast.

Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes
Ingredients
PANCAKES
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk, any kind
- 1 cup blueberries
- 2 tablespoons butter or oil
BLUEBERRY SAUCE
- ½ cup cold water
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together yogurt, egg, and milk. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in blueberries.
- Melt butter or heat oil in a large skillet or electric griddle. Pour ¼ cup of pancake mixture onto hot griddle. Cook for two minutes, or until edges begin to bubble and the bottom turns golden brown.
- Gently flip over to other side and let cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter until all pancakes are cooked.
- While the pancakes are cooking, prepare blueberry sauce (can also be made ahead of time). Combine the water, cornstarch, and sugar in a medium pot.
- Stir well until thoroughly combined and then add in blueberries. Stir occasionally, bringing mixture to a boil. Stir constantly for 2 minutes or until blueberries are thickened and begin to burst open.
- Pour sauce on pancakes. Serve immediately.
These pancakes look DELICIOUS, Gayle!! The blueberry compote on top looks so delicious and the pancakes look so fluffy! I am a BIG fan of pancakes and haven’t made blueberry pancakes in forever! Yummy!! I hope your week is off to a wonderful start 😀 PINNED!
Thanks, Ceara! I hadn’t had blueberry pancakes in a long time either, so this definitely hit the spot. Hope your week is going well too!
Wow, that sauce looks incredible! I love the idea of using yogurt in the pancake, too. So fluffy!
I have to love Cyndi Lauper. She makes me feel kind of young again. 🙂
Thanks, Mir! I don’t think I’m going back to pancakes not made with greek yogurt…these were just too good!
My stomach is growling just looking at that blueberry sauce. I’m a HUGE pancake fan and even more so a blueberry freak. I love those little fruits. These look amazing and healthy. I’m with you on the Monday Struggle Bus.
Thanks, Erin! I think you would love these pancakes! Filled with blueberries and on the healthier side…perfect for a Monday!
So now I have Manic Monday stuck in my head…..umm…thank you… 😉
Fortunately I still love you because the pancakes look INCREDIBLE!!! Love all that blueberry sauce dripping down the sides!!!
Haha you’re welcome! 🙂 Thanks so much for the kind words, Lindsey!
Oh, if every Monday started with pancakes as good looking as these I would be OK. Here’s to more delicious weekday breakfasts 😉
Me too, Megan! I guess we’ll just have to settle for every once in a while, right? 🙂
I absolutely love blueberry pancakes and that blueberry sauce looks perfect. I would probably just eat that by itself too 🙂
Thank you, Dannii! The sauce is so delicious!
Gayle, I wish it were still Sunday too! 😛 oh my goodness!!! These blueberry pancakes and the BLUEBERRY SAUCE?!!!! these look incredible!!!! love!
Thank you, Alice!
Yes, I do wish it was Sunday! Why do the weekends have to go by so fast? At least these pancakes are a great way to start Monday morning. I could probably eat that blueberry sauce by the spoonful!
Eating this sauce by the spoonful is definitely acceptable! Thanks, Ashley!
I reallyyyyy wish I was starting my Monday morning this way right now!!
It’s the best start for a Monday! Thanks, Sues!
Oh yes yes yes yes yes! Without a doubt my favorite breakfast is blueberry pancakes. And they’re packed with protein? Win-win-win… win. 🙂
Definitely a win, Sarah! Thanks!
I’m so craving pancakes right now, you have no idea. The pictures are gorgeous!! Pinned!
Thanks so much for the kind words and pin, Dorothy!
The weekends go by way too quickly but these pancakes would cure all of those Monday blues away! They look absolutely gorgeous, Gayle! I’m totally drooling over the delicious blueberry compote – I just had some over the weekend and it was not enough – I could seriously eat it by the spoonful!
Thank you, Kelly! This sauce is amazing and so versatile, too. I’ve been eating it on everything!
I was really struggling this morning until I saw these awesome pancakes. I want to stop what I’m doing and go make some!!
You definitely should, Jen! They’re so easy and so delicious!
These look so delicious Gayle!!! Love pancakes and blueberries! Need to make these, to cheer ups because I’m not happy with the weather! Happy Monday – we’ve got snow 🙂
Yay for a snowy spring Monday! 🙂 Thanks, Mira!
Oooh, look at all those blueberries! Just the way I like my pancakes!
Me too, Kelly! Thanks!
These look sooo yummy. Especially with the blueberry sauce oozing down the sides :). I LOVE incorporating Greek Yogurt into recipes! I will definitely be trying this.
I love using Greek yogurt too, Annie! It’s such a great way to add moisture and protein to baked goods. Thanks for the pancake love!
Too funny, my husband and I made blueberry pancakes yesterday and I finally had good morning light to photograph them for the blog! These look so fluffy and delicious. Your pictures make me want to make more. 🙂
Thank you, Linda! I can’t wait to see your pancake recipe. I’m in love with blueberry pnes, they’re so delish!
Yes please!! I agree! Mondays need pancakes! These look great! I love that you used greek yogurt!
Thank you, Annie! I love sneaking in Greek yogurt whenever I can!
You can never have too many blueberries in your pancakes or on top! You nailed it!!
Thanks, Annie!
Oh my goodness, these would make my Monday a million times better! Just gorgeous!
Thanks, Ashley!
These pancakes look so delicious, and that sauce, wow! I’ve been making a lot of pancakes these past 2 weeks. I can’t get enough. I like to make my pancakes with oil so that the edges of the pancakes get crunchy. It’s nice to have something else to top your pancakes with besides syrup.
Thank you, Neeli! This sauce is so delicious and so versatile! I agree, it’s nice to have something different to top your pancakes with. This sauce definitely hits the spot!
HAHA! You made this afternoon a little more exciting by starting off with Cyndi Lauper, Gayle! I love these pancakes more than I love Cyndi Lauper however. Yum!!!
I’m glad I could brighten up your afternoon, Justine! 🙂 Thanks for the pancake love!
OMG! I can’t EVEN deal!! Blueberries are favorite fruit on pancakes!
Blueberries are the best! Thanks for stopping by, Tonya!
oh my goodness these look AMAZING!!!! Could you sub whole wheat flour for regular flour? Would that change the consistency at all?
Thank you, Kristen! These are my new favorite pancakes! You could definitely subsitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose. However, I haven’t tried it, so I’m not sure how much it would change the taste or consistency of it. I hope you love this if you try it and thanks so much for stopping by!
I love Greek yogurt pancakes — they come out so fluffy and I like the protein and tang that they add! And these look bluberry-licious! Pinned. 🙂
Thanks so much for the pancake love and pin, Marcie!
That blueberry sauce!!!! Gorgeous!
Thanks, Nicole!
Your pancakes look divine. I had to read every comment just to see if anyone told you that Manic Monday is by the Bangles…not Cyndi Lauper. LOL. I’m a huge 80s music fan and thought you might like to know! 🙂 Now off to make pancakes! 🙂
Oh my gosh, I totally should’ve known that! Thanks so much for telling me, Jennifer. I’m shocked no one else mentioned that! I’m updating my post, so thank you. And thanks for the kind words and for stopping by, too!
That blueberry sauce looks AMAZING, Gayle!!! I’m a pancake lover, so this recipe has my name written all over it. Perfection! 🙂
Thanks, Blair!
That sauce looks legendary! This is a serious breakfast 🙂
Thank you, Medha!

I love these Gayle! Such a great idea adding Greek yogurt to pancakes to add some protein! Definitely need to try these soon.
You would love these, Stacey! The yogurt gives these a nice texture, too!
Oh my GOD Gayle.. what DECADENT breakfast. I am obsessed with the height of this pancake stack – and all that delicious blueberry sauce!
Thanks so much, Thalia! These pancakes turned out so good…especially with this sauce!
Gayle these look absolutely delicious!! I could eat that whole stack right there! And I already wish it was Friday! Gonna be a long week! Maybe I’ll whip these pancakes up after the hubby and kids leave, hehe. Our secret! Pinned! 😉
Thanks, Cyndi! My husband pretty much polished off the entire stack after I finished taking pictures!
OMG Gayle I love these pancakes. We always put greek yogurt in our pancakes and I love it…but this blueberry syrup?! YUMMMM!!! Pinned!
Thanks for the pin, Mariah! You would love the blueberry sauce!
Oh my gosh! That blueberry sauce looks divine!
Thanks, Christin!
Now I have that song in my head and its Tuesday. 🙂 Love the addition of greek yogurt, I never thought of adding it to my pancakes. And the blueberry syrup is to die for. Yumm
Thank you, Kathy!
WOW!! These look amazing! Seriously, YUM! Those bright berries! Wow! Great recipe Gayle!!
Thanks, Cailee!
I, like so many others, was lured here by that amazing picture. Because seriously I normally don’t even like fluffy pancakes but those make we want to make a stack right now! I am so ready for blueberries to be in season and this post is going to make the wait seem even longer!
These pancakes are delicious, Melinda! I think you would love them! Thanks so much for the kind words and for stopping by!
Now I’m going to have that song stuck in my head! Haha! Ok, Gayle, these pancakes look amazing! I love that they use greek yogurt. I almost never have milk in my house, so it’s tough to make pancakes last minute. But I always have greek yogurt! And that blueberry sauce it fab!
Haha at least it’s not Monday anymore, right? 🙂 This blueberry sauce is so delish, I’m eating it with practically everything I can get my hands on!
Oh my goodness! These Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes would be my ultimate weakness!!! AWESOME!!
Thanks, Olivia!
Dear Gayle, this is one of the best looking stack of pancakes I have seen. They are so fluffy and thick and I love it! The sauce is magnificent…what a delicious start to any day. xo, Catherine

These look absolutely incredible!! Love that they use Greek yogurt too!
Thanks for the kind words and for stopping by, Stephanie!
We always have greek yogurt on hand, so I love that you added it to these pancakes! I may have to give these a try next time we have pancakes 😉 Beautiful pictures too!
Thank you, Danielle! These pancakes are so good! I’m definitely using greek yogurt every time I make them from now on!
Whoa, now THOSE are some blueberry pancakes! I’ve never thought to use greek yogurt before in the batter – I can only imagine how sensational these pancakes are! I too love the Bangles and that song lol. Glad I stopped by your site! So many amazing recipes on here!
The yogurt gives the pancakes more protein and extra fluffiness! Thanks so much for the kind words and for stopping by, Heather!
I made these this morning and they were just as easy as you said they would be! I had nonfat plain greek yogurt, so I added 2 tsp vanilla extract and 4 tsp granulated sugar. We miraculously had a blueberry preserve with whole berries, so I used those as topping. Thank you for breakfast!
Hi Rebekah! I’m so glad you loved these! And that was a great idea to add in some vanilla and sugar. Thanks so much for the kind words and for letting me know how it turned out!
These pancakes are GORGEOUS! I love them!
Thank you, Shelby!
Gayle I am also a pancake fanatic, and these look absolutely fantastic!! That blueberry sauce is incredible – I want a plate of these for dinner tonight!
Thanks so much for the pancake love, Cate!
These are really great! I did make a few small replacements because I am counting every calorie and really trying to lose weight. I used stone ground whole wheat flour, fat free plain Greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, and coconut oil and they were still really good. But what I wanted to ask you was the nutrition facts of your recipe. I didn’t find it anywhere in here. Can you let me know. Thank you for the recipe!
I’m so glad you liked these pancakes, Kristin! They’re my favorite. In a few weeks, I’m sharing a similar pancake recipe, so I hope you like those, too. Unfortunately, I do not know the nutritional value of this (or any recipe) on my site. Since I am not a dietitian, I do not want to give the wrong information. I apologize! I do know that it is less calories than regular pancakes, but I do not know the exact number.
Saw this on buzzfeed. It was really tasty!

Thanks for the kind words and for stopping by, Cindy!
Omg, OMG – MUST make this coming w/end. I haven’t had them yet and am already in a pancake coma…they look CRAZY DELICIOUS
!!!
I hope you love these pancakes! They’re my favorite kind! 🙂
these are right up my alley. I love using greek yogurt in pancakes.. not to mention blueberries! thank you! 🙂
Thank you for stopping by, Mia! Hope you love these if you try them!
These are our one of my family’s favorite foods! We add nearly another cup of milk-We use vanilla Almond milk-I’m not sure if they are meant to be super thick or if it’s just the different milk, but we like them a bit thinner. I also add zest from a lemon and a tablespoon of vanilla. (We are slightly obsessed with vanilla.) Thank you for this recipe-We make them camping, too, and everyone raves about them! I’ve always been anti-pancake until these. Nom nom nom…
I’m SO glad you like these, Halie! Thanks so much for letting me know how they turned out. These are meant to be pretty thick, so that’s a good idea to thin it out a bit! And I’m going to try adding some lemon zest the next time I make these, sounds delicious! Hope you have a good night!
