Fluffy Yogurt Pancakes (gluten free)
There’s nothing better than starting your day with a stack of these light and delicious pancakes. A real family favourite for weekends or any time you fancy a treat! They’re quick to whip up, too, making them perfect for busy mornings or a leisurely brunch. Whether you enjoy them stacked high with your favourite toppings or kept simple with a drizzle of maple syrup, these pancakes are sure to put a smile on everyone’s face and set you up for a brilliant day ahead.
What you’ll need
The main ingredients of these yummy pancakes are the following:
Flour: Both gluten free and all-purpose flour work well in this recipe, so you can choose whichever best suits your diet.
Eggs: If you’d like a vegan version, you can substitute each egg with a flax egg. To make one flax egg, simply mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons of water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens. Use as you would regular eggs in the batter.
Yogurt: I like to use plain dairy free yogurt, but any plain yogurt works if you don’t need to avoid dairy.
Ideas for Extra Nutrition and Taste
The right toppings can turn your pancakes into a nourishing meal. Here are some tasty combinations and their nutritional highlights:
· Berries with chopped nuts: Fresh berries add antioxidants and a burst of flavour, while chopped nuts bring in healthy fats and a bit of crunch.
· Banana with cinnamon: Sliced banana and a sprinkle of cinnamon will naturally sweeten your pancakes and provide a boost of potassium.
· Seeds (like chia or pumpkin): Sprinkle seeds over your pancakes for extra protein and fibre.
· Dairy free yogurt & honey or maple syrup: A dollop of creamy yogurt with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup is always a winner.
· Chocolate chips or spread: For a bit of indulgence, add a spoonful of chocolate spread or some chocolate chips.

Fluffy Yogurt Pancakes
(Gluten Free)
Preparation time: 1 minute
Cooking time: 5 minutes
Total time: 6 minutes
Serves: 1–2
Ingredients
· 2 cups gluten free flour
· ½ cup dairy free yogurt
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
· ½ teaspoon baking soda
· 1 tablespoon powdered sweetener
· 2 eggs
· Pinch of salt
· 1 tablespoon oil (for frying)
Optional Toppings
· Dairy free yogurt
· Fresh fruit
· Honey
Method
1. Preheat a frying pan over a medium heat. When hot, add a splash of oil to the pan.
2. In a bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
3. Add the dairy free yogurt to the eggs and mix.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the gluten free flour, baking powder, baking soda, powdered sweetener and a pinch of salt.
5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
6. Pour some of the batter into the frying pan, swirling to evenly coat the base. Fry over a medium heat.
7. Cook for about a minute, or until the underside turns golden. Flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden as well. Repeat with the rest of the batter, stirring the mixture between pancakes and adding more oil to the pan as needed.
8. Serve the pancakes immediately with your choice of honey, dairy free yogurt, fresh fruit or any other preferred filling.
Enjoy!
Notes
To Store: The pancake mixture keeps for a few days if you store it covered in the fridge. For best results, use a glass or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid, and label it with the date to help keep track of freshness. Give the mixture a good whisk before using.
***
To Freeze: Freeze the cooked pancakes in an airtight box or freezer bag for up to 2 months. It's helpful to add a label with the date so you know when they were frozen. To reheat, simply warm the frozen pancakes in a toaster or microwave until heated through.
