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

# Step-by-Step:

01 - Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl until evenly distributed.
02 - Whisk Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter in a separate bowl until smooth and fully incorporated.
03 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Small lumps are acceptable; avoid overmixing to prevent tough pancakes.
04 - Gently fold blueberries into the batter, being careful not to crush them.
05 - Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly brush with butter to prevent sticking.

07 - Carefully flip pancakes and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
08 - Repeat with remaining batter, adding butter to the skillet as needed between batches.
09 - Serve pancakes warm with additional Greek yogurt, fresh blueberries, and maple syrup if desired.
