🥞 3-Ingredient Yogurt Pancakes
If you’re looking for a quick, easy breakfast that everyone in the family will love, these 3-ingredient yogurt pancakes are a must-try. They are incredibly simple to make, come together in just minutes, and cook up soft, fluffy, and delicious every time.
The best part? You only need 3 simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. No complicated steps, no long ingredient list, just mix, cook and enjoy.
These pancakes have become one of those go-to breakfast recipes in our house when mornings feel rushed or when the kids ask for pancakes and I want something quick but still homemade. Even better, the texture comes out perfectly light and fluffy thanks to the yogurt and self-rising flour.
Another reason I love this recipe is that it truly works for everyone in the family. They are great for babies starting solids, baby-led weaning (BLW), toddlers, older kids, and adults. The soft texture makes them easy for little eaters to chew, while the flavor is simple and delicious enough for the whole family to enjoy.
👶 Perfect for Babies, BLW & Kids
These pancakes are especially great for babies and toddlers because they are soft, easy to hold and the perfect quick breakfast idea.
Ways to serve them:
Cut into small strips for babies doing BLW
Cut into bite-size pieces for toddlers
Serve whole for older kids
🍓 Topping Ideas
One of the best things about these pancakes is how easily you can customize them with your favorite toppings.
Try serving them with:
Maple syrup
Nut butter
Fresh berries
Banana slices
Butter
Yogurt drizzle
Honey (for kids over 1)
You can even let kids choose their own toppings, which makes breakfast extra fun.
🔄 Substitutions
This simple pancake recipe is very flexible, so you can easily adjust it depending on what ingredients you have at home.
Flour
If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can use:
½ cup all-purpose flour + 1 teaspoon baking powder or another flour of choice.
This will give you the same fluffy texture as self-rising flour.
Yogurt
You can use different types of yogurt depending on what you have available:
Plain whole milk yogurt
Greek yogurt (the batter may be slightly thicker)
Dairy-free yogurt alternatives
Egg
I haven’t tried replacing the egg in this recipe, I don’t recommend it.

Hi. Can you use spelt flour?







Could these be made with gluten free flour?
