# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The tang from Greek yogurt balances perfectly with sweet blueberries creating that restaurant quality flavor you usually have to go out for
  • These pancakes stay incredibly fluffy and moist even after sitting on a plate while everyone gets their breakfast together
02 -
  • Overmixing the batter will make these tough and dense so stop mixing the second you no longer see dry flour streaks
  • The batter should be thick and slightly lumpy not thin and runny like traditional pancake batter
03 -
  • Frozen blueberries work perfectly and actually help keep the batter cold which creates taller pancakes
  • If using frozen berries do not thaw them first or they will bleed purple streaks throughout your batter
