Fluffy Homemade Pancakes
Disclosure: I am a Stonyfield ambassador, which means I’m being compensated for posts like this one, and I’ve also been given free Stonyfield yogurt. As always, the opinions, recipes, ideas, etc., are all mine!
I don’t need to go on and on about how much we love pancakes in our house, because you can easily read about that in the other pancake recipes I have on the blog.
I will reiterate how useful leftover pancakes can be during the work-week though. My kids both love them reheated in the microwave, and it’s arguably quicker than pouring a bowl of cereal!
Today I cooked a batch of fluffy homemade pancakes. They were made with my basic recipe, except I added a 1/4 cup of Stonyfield Plain Greek yogurt and a tablespoon of pure vanilla extract.
I don’t know this for sure, but I believe the reason these particular pancakes were SO light and fluffy was due to the yogurt. These homemade vanilla waffles I made for the Stonyfield blog tasted the same – extra light and fluffy.
So, who knows? I’ll take it though.
PS: My sister said I should branch out a little with my photography positions, so these two shots are just for her! No shooting from the top-looking-down angle, in this post!

I never ever thought of making extra pancakes and keeping them in the fridge. It’s funny how sometimes a great idea that should be so obvious, just goes unnoticed until someone points it out. Thanks for sharing it.

Trevor – It makes it so easy to get breakfast together during the work/school-week. I also do a double-batch of pizza dough when I make it so that I can freeze the other half for next time. 😉

Hey Liza!
So the Fluffy Pancakes have made their South American debut! We’d run out of the “pancake mix” we always bring back from the states. However this simple recipe held its own against the industrialized stuff, thus liberating us from future baggage excess, giving us to chance to eat them on a weekly basis, and offering us a clear conscious about what we’re actually ingesting. SCORE!!! Thanks!!! Hugs to the whole clan!

Excellent!! You’ll have to try add-ins too: cinnamon, wheat flour, berries…. 🙂 Big hugs to all!
