These Greek Yogurt Pancakes are served with a homemade Pineapple-Blueberry Syrup to be light, fluffy and so good for a special breakfast.
Starting my mornings off with a delicious breakfast is definitely a MUST for me and it doesn’t get much better than pancakes. Am I right? Growing up pancakes were always considered such a treat – sweet and fluffy all drizzled with gooey maple syrup, I mean it was like dessert for breakfast. Well pancakes don’t have to be unhealthy and just because these aren’t loaded with sugar doesn’t mean they have to taste bad either. These Greek yogurt pancakes are one of my FAVORITE things to make my husband and I in the mornings and they are so easy.
The pancakes are great, yes, but that syrup. Oh, my!
