Tender scrambled pancakes cooked in skillet, made from simple ingredients for a quick breakfast.

# Ingredient List:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - ½ teaspoon baking soda
05 - ¼ teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

06 - 2 large eggs
07 - ¾ cup whole milk
08 - ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
09 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for cooking)
10 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

11 - ½ cup blueberries, chocolate chips, or diced fruit

# How-To Steps:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
02 - Add eggs, milk, Greek yogurt (or sour cream), melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture; whisk until just combined, leaving some lumps.
03 - Gently fold in any preferred optional add-ins such as blueberries or chocolate chips.
04 - Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly brush with butter.
05 - Pour the batter into the skillet and let it cook undisturbed for 1 to 2 minutes until edges start to set.
06 - Using a spatula, gently scramble and fold the batter as it cooks, breaking it into large, fluffy curds.
07 - Continue folding and cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes until fully cooked and golden.
08 - Serve warm topped with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite accompaniments.

# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • One bowl means less cleanup and more time enjoying breakfast with your coffee.
  • The scrambled texture is naturally forgiving, so imperfect cooking actually looks intentional.
02 -
  • Medium heat is non-negotiable; high heat makes the outside brown before the inside cooks, and you'll miss that fluffy texture entirely.
  • The batter will seem thicker than regular pancake batter, and that's correct—it's what keeps the scrambled pieces soft instead of falling apart into mush.
03 -
  • If you separate the eggs and whisk the whites to soft peaks before folding them in, the scrambled pancakes become almost impossibly fluffy—it's extra work that actually pays off.
  • Keep butter nearby while cooking; adding a small pat as you fold creates richer, silkier pieces that taste like they're from a fancy brunch spot.
