Light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh blueberries, these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes are the ultimate treat for when you want to indulge in a healthier breakfast.

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.

Light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh blueberries, these Blueberry Greek Yogurt Pancakes are the ultimate treat for when you want to indulge in a healthier breakfast.

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.

    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. 🙂

    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!

    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!

      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!

    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!

    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!

    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!

    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 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.

    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!
