Yogurt Pancakes Recipe

We found a new way to make pancakes this week in the Dedaj home, and I must say, it has really been a hit with my twin toddlers. You can use any kind of yogurt you have on hand for this recipe - we always use Whole Milk Plain Yogurt by Farmland Fresh Dairies. There is something special about making homemade pancakes, and the yogurt in these pancakes truly makes these the softest and fluffiest kind with a bit of tangy flavor we love!

This recipe is quick and easy for all my fellow busy mamas out there, and is a great way to sneak in some extra nutrition into a food the kids already love. You can have pancakes ANY time of day, and they are easy to store flat in the freezer and warmed up for 40-60 seconds in the microwave when you're ready to eat them. This recipe makes for about 12 pancakes, and you can easily substitute different kinds of yogurt, like vanilla, strawberry, etc for a sweeter flavor.

Ingredients:

2 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
2 cups Farmland Fresh Dairies whole milk plain yogurt
1/4 cup water

Directions:

Combine flour, sugar, and baking powder in a small bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt and water.
Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Pour batter onto a hot griddle sprayed with cooking spray. When bubbles begin to form on the top, turn your pancake. Cook until both sides are golden brown.

“Perpeq”: An Albanian Egg Custard

"Perpeq" is one of my fondest childhood memories because it brings me back to Easter time, as my mom and grandmother mostly made it in our house during that time of year. Guess it was because we had all those eggs in the fridge! Actually, it's a dish that my family traditionally blessed as their breakfast food for Easter Sunday. I appreciate this dish so much because it is exclusively part of my Albanian culture, and it reminds me constantly of the simple ingredients and creativity Albanian women have used historically, living in large families and persevering through many adversities. I am not sure what to call this in English, but the closest thing I’ve had to “perpeq” is egg custard, though it is different. “Perpeq” makes a great dessert OR breakfast item. Thankfully, I am partnering with Farmland Fresh Dairies to share this recipe with everyone, using the best quality milk. It’s taken me years to put this recipe together because my ...

How I Introduced Cow's Milk to my Twins

The transition from infant to toddler is such a big leap, and one of the greatest events that really will change life is the switch from formula to cow's milk. I did this once already with my first child, and guess I learned a lot just through trial and error. We didn't have the best experience switching over to formula with David - poor little guy dealt with tons of constipation issues, but we eventually got there and things were ok. I wanted to share about this experience because the topic of switching to cow's milk is one I often get asked about. Back in the days of first-time-mom life, I used to live on my Babycenter Birth Club community and by the advice of my pediatrician and mother. Nowadays, as a mom of twins plus one, I am much more open to listening to others, reflecting on my first experiences, and I guess I've developed somewhat of a mom tribe to lean on for advice. When I transitioned my twins to whole milk, it was a whole different tactic f...

My Top 3 Double Umbrella Strollers Review: Pros & Cons

Just before the twins were born, I sold our Uppababy Cruz I had for my first son, and was so thankful Grandma and Grandpa offered to buy me the stroller of my "twins plus one" mom dreams - our Uppababy Vista, with two seats and a piggyback board that could actually accommodate all 3 boys to ride on! Our Evenflo Minno Twin double stroller for Grandma's house To me, the stroller is the top item every mom should splurge on because it really should last a long time and it's used constantly! I felt like we were outgrowing our precious Uppababy Vista stroller after the boys turned a year old and my oldest was not really using the board to ride on as much anymore and the twins began kicking the seats and throwing things at each other depending on who got the higher seat- and with the summer weather approaching, I decided it was time to really invest in a good double umbrella stroller and go from the in-line to a tandem side-by-side stroller (a huge decision for a mo...
