Honey Yogurt Pancakes

I’m not really into yogurt.

I mean, I’ve definitely gone through yogurt stages before, but it’s not really on my list of favorite foods.

But.

My co-worker brought Noosa to lunch last week and I was immediately reminded that… I love that yogurt. I mean yoghurt. And if you’ve never had Noosa, you’ve never lived. I can’t even begin to explain how amazing that brand of yoghurt is. It’s not just yoghurt, it’s like velvety custard. I don’t know what their secret is, but I’d pay good money to find out.

On Sunday morning, I was kind of being a crab. Here’s how crabby I was being. Joey reminded me it was Pancake Sunday and my reaction was basically this. “Ughhhh, I don’t want toooo.” Who says that about pancakes?! But Robert Irvine was showing me how to make hasselback potatoes and the couch was really comfy. Then I remembered I had Honey Noosa in the fridge and Pancake Sunday was on.

Honey Yogurt Pancakes

Or yoghurt, if you’re lucky enough to have Noosa on hand.

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 heaping teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1/4 cup honey-flavored yogurt (or whatever yogurt you have on hand)
• 1 egg

1. In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
2. In a second bowl, whisk milk, yogurt and egg.
3. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix just until combined.
4. Turn your skillet on, grease it and let batter sit while the skillet heats up.
5. Drop batter onto skillet by the 1/4 cup-full and cook until slightly browned and ready to be flipped, then cook on the other side.

Top with what have you.

Have you ever had Noosa Yoghurt?

Are you much of a yogurt eater?

What instantly makes you in a better mood? My answer: being in Disneyland, but I guess that’s kind of a long trip to make every time I’m in a bad mood.
