Yogurt Pancakes with Lemon Devonshire




With all of the berries we have here in the Northwest it seems a shame to only have breakfast in the morning! So, we had to have pancakes in the evening the other night. Was so easy and so good. Even a bowl of cereal with berries on top would have been just fine with me! That, or a banana/berry milkshake!

Yogurt Pancakes
Adapted from Ina Garten


Stir together:

3 cups flour

¼ cup sugar

4 tsp. baking powder

1 Tbsp. sea salt

Whisk in:

1 cup plain ol’ yogurt

1½ cups PLUS 2 Tbsp. milk

4 eggs

2 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Zest from 1 small lemon

Directions:

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients

Stir until well mixed. Do not over mix!

Using about 1/4 cup measure, ladle onto griddle that is heated on medium heat.

Make sure the griddle is oiled.

Allow pancake to cook until small bubbles start popping up.

Flip pancake and let cook for about 2-3 more minutes.

Keep pancakes warm in a 200* oven. {Be sure to keep them toasty and covered!}

Serve pancakes with fresh blueberries and HEAPS and HEAPS o' CREAM!



Lemon Devonshire Cream:

½ cup heavy cream

8 oz. softened cream cheese {room temp}

1 tbsp. powdered sugar

½ cup sour cream {I like Daisy Brand...full fat!}

Zest of 1 small lemon

1 tsp. lemon oil, pure lemon extract or lemon curd to taste

Directions:

*Beat heavy cream until it is well-whipped {not butter!!!} and add the rest of the ingredients.
*Beat until all ingredients are incorporated.
*Keep chilled until ready to serve.


Do you ever enjoy breakfast for dinner? If so, what is your favorite thing to fix or pour?

An endless supply of great wood for some fun projects!!!  I reminded my hubby how lucky he was that we didn't have to go buy all the wood and distress it!  Yes, he did roll his eyes at me...followed by a great big HUG!



Do YOU think 300 Mason jars will be enough???



Raspberries = Summer

    1. Thank you, Diana.
      I think we are creating more work than we need to...either we are crazy or trying to ignore the empty nest syndrome by staying too busy...
      Happy 4th of July to you!!! XO

  3. Hi Sweet Friend... Maybe you can make a mason jar chandelier after the big event? Or maybe spread the word that you have mason jars to rent for events... Maybe you could re-coup a few dollars. Can hardly wait to see how you festoon the jars! Love all your other fun touches, too. I'm sure you all will enjoy your new fencing. Nothing helps with the to-do list like a deadline.

    Happy fourth to your family! We'll start out with a neighborhood bike parade...followed by an afternoon at the pool... Followed by a looooong nap-I hope--and a BBQ with neighbors! God Bless America and all our service men and women serving and protecting us! Happy Birthday, Anerica!!! Paula Romer
