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 mother and grandmoth

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

Easter Bread "Nests" Recipe

With the holy season of Lent here, Easter is just about one month away! And thankfully, Spring is officially here, too! Every holiday, I always think about what traditions I want my family to have, to remember, and to hold onto. Baking with my kids is something I enjoy thoroughly, as it brings us together in preparing and eating. I decided to start a new Easter tradition for our family this year, and so I tested out Easter Bread "nests" with my Kindergartner after school - the bread came out so delicious, and we had so much fun together, that I am sure this Easter tradition is something we will continue every year. One of my most prevalent challenges with my 6-year old son now is getting him to persist through a task that he says is "too hard for me." He wanted to give up when he struggled to roll his dough and was frustrated making his first "braid" with the bread, but, together (with lots of praise, patience and gentleness) we managed to finish wh
