Savory Veggie & Cheese Pancakes
Golden, fluffy pancakes packed with finely grated vegetables and melted cheese. The creamy Greek yogurt base keeps them wonderfully soft, making them easy to hold and chew for little ones. A brilliant way to sneak extra veggies into any meal of the day.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Full-Fat Greek Yogurt
- 0.25 cup Whole Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 cup Mixed Vegetables (Zucchini & Carrots)
- 1 cup Shredded Cheese
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, melted butter, and 60ml of milk until smooth and well combined.
- Add the flour and baking powder to the wet mixture. Stir gently until a thick batter forms. If the batter seems too stiff, add a splash more milk until it is thick but pourable.
- Fold in the shredded cheese and finely grated vegetables (such as zucchini and carrots) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Warm a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a thin layer of butter or oil.
- Spoon roughly 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the pan. Gently spread into small rounds. Cook for 2–3 minutes until small bubbles appear on the surface and the underside is golden.
- Flip carefully and cook for another 2–3 minutes until fully cooked through and golden on both sides.
- Transfer to a plate and allow to cool until comfortable for little hands to hold.
- Safety step: For babies under 12 months, tear or cut the pancakes into strips or small pieces to reduce choking risk. Always supervise during mealtimes.
