In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl or a blender, whisk the yogurt, milk or water, eggs, vanilla, and melted butter. Pour the wet mixture into the flour bowl, and with a whisk, combine until there's no visible flour.
Cook the pancakes:
Heat a large non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat, and once hot, grease it. Immediately, pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake, using the back of the scoop if necessary, to gently spread it on the pan. Cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes, until the edges begin to look defined and bubbles form. Flip the pancakes over and cook for another minute to two on the other side.
Tip: Make sure not to press them down with the spatula and only flip once. Repeat with the rest of the pancake batter.
Serve topped with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite pancake toppings.
Notes
Full-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt works for this recipe, plain or flavored.
Use the right baking powder: Since pancake batter naturally has a mild, neutral flavor, it's important to use aluminum-free baking powder. The metallic flavor will ruin the taste, especially in fluffy pancake recipes that call for 2 or more teaspoons. Trust me on this one.
