These Greek yogurt pancake mini muffins are healthy breakfast perfection. They are made with wholesome ingredients, little added sugar and best of all they taste amazing!

This recipe is another reason why Greek yogurt has become my favorite thing to bake with. My kids love breads and muffins of all kinds and Greek yogurt has become my favorite way to bulk up their favorite treats with a little extra nutrition.

First I created the dreamiest fluffy Greek yogurt waffles, then came the perfect Greek yogurt pancakes that inspired this recipe!

Greek yogurt not only adds protein, but it gives simply the best texture to baked goods. Light as air and so fluffy, you just have to try it!

How to make Greek yogurt pancake muffins

Step 1: Whisk together the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl: flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 2: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, Greek yogurt, milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.

Step 3: Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined using a rubber spatula.

Step 4: Grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray. Distribute the batter into the mini muffin tin, using 1 tablespoon of batter per tin. This will fill the tin about halfway full.

Step 5: Top the batter with your toppings. I use 2-3 fresh blueberries or a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips. Chopped up strawberries would also be yummy!

Step 6: Bake the mini muffins at 400 degrees for 9-11 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Storing

Leftover Greek yogurt pancake mini muffins can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days or in the freezer for 2-3 months.

One serving of these packs 7 grams of protein for 5 mini muffins! This recipe will make 40 total mini muffins. They were an absolute hit in my house and I’m planning to make a double batch next time to freeze the rest for later.

I love how simple these are to throw together and they would be great to bake on a Sunday and freeze for busy weekday breakfasts. They are just so yummy!
