What can we use instead of sour cream ?
Stephanie Brubaker says
You can use plain or greek yogurt instead of sour cream 🙂
Kimberly says
This looks like a great recipe! How many pancakes does it make?
Viv says
Lovely simple recipe – really brought to life by the lovely cinnamon and vanilla combination. Thank you.
Malea says
Can you use almond milk in place of regular milk?
Stephanie Brubaker says
I have not tried using almond milk but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work! Let me know if you try it, Maela! 🙂
sr says
can you use powered buttermilk instead of sour cream & milk ?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Yes! The sour cream does add a nice fluffiness to the pancakes though 🙂
Candi says
Thanks for the recipe. I was able to add powdered eggs, cinnamon, milk and sour cream so I can dry seal them in a jar. This is great! All I have to do is add water:) whoop hoooo:)
Alexandra says
This recipe is soooo nice! I really like the idea of always having a “dry mix” ready anytime so that you just have to make the “wet mix” . I’ve just made one batch of this and my husband ate like 3/4 of the pancakes 🙂
For the wet ingredients i mix them quit a lot, like 5-7min so that I have many bubbles to be sure my pancakes will be fluffy. The sour cream is really a plus that gives the pancakes a soft taste.
Thank you sooo much for this recipe, i’m waiting for my 1 year old son to make him taste them and i’m pretty sure he’ll loove them 😉
cathy says
can you use something else instead of sour cream when making up the pancakes. love the idea of homemade pancake mix
Stephanie says
You could try plain yougurt if you don’t like sour cream! Hope you enjoy, Cathy!
Susan Bates says
Can I substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream? I just hate to ask about a substitution when you have a really good, well thought out recipe.
Stephanie says
Hi, Susan! I have not tried that substitution in this recipe, but it works as a great substitute in most recipes. I say, give it a try! 🙂
Andria says
We love this recipe!! The flavors are wonderful. My only wish is that they were a little fluffier. These always turn out pretty flat, even when I’m careful not to overmix, and let the batter sit without re-stirring. Any ideas on how I might get a little more “rise” out of these otherwise wonderful hot cakes? 😉
Stephanie says
I’m glad to hear you love this recipe, Andria! As far as getting fluffier pancakes, make sure you really beat the wet ingredients together well. You want to incorporate lots of air into the mixture – that will make the pancakes light and fluffy. Then just very gently add the dry ingredients. Hope that’s helpful 🙂
Kris says
Do you know if they can be made without the sour cream? Does it affect the flavor? Could milk be used instead? This recipe looks yummy, I just don’t always have sour cream on hand.
Stephanie says
They can be made without sour cream – it does help make them nice and fluffy though 🙂
Anthony says
Is the purpose of the sour cream to make it more like a buttermilk pancake? Would it affect the batter too much if left out?
Laura says
can you leave out the sugar and the salt? Both are so bad for you, and I’m looking for a healthy recipe since the packaged stuff has GMOs.
Stephanie says
Hi Laura! I’m sure you can leave them out but it will effect the flavor of the pancakes. If you try it let me know how they turn out! 🙂
Andria Sittig says
I've tried the recipe and LOVE the taste…SO yummy. I like to halve the pancake mix recipe for my guys, since I usually don't have 8 cups flour, on hand. I've noticed the pacakes are pretty flat, so didn't know if I needed to make any other adjustments in the leavening ingredients when halving the mix recipe? Thahks!
Barbara Ann Ford says
I used this recipe for waffles, it is great!
Melissa says
made up a big batch to bring to camp this weekend 🙂 can’t wait to try it.
Stephanie says
Fantastic! Enjoy, Melissa!
Lynette Curran says
thank you for a great recipe.
Maria Serpa-Gauvin says
Love the recipe! So easy. Making my own batch this weekend.
Elena Masters says
I liked the part about freezing the one that doesn't get eaten, seems like there is always enough batter for one that no body can eat.
Renee says
this is wonderful, thankyou for an easy pancake recipe, now me and my kids can make pancakes everyday. 🙂
Bettyj Whittaker says
Love pancakes
Sherry Ness says
Can you substitute whole wheat flour?
Stephanie Brubaker says
I don't see why not! 🙂

Angie Stewart Church says
what a great idea mornings are very busy here and this will allow me to present my family with breakfast.
Katie B. of HousewifeHowTos.com says
Thanks for sharing this. I love pancakes, but don’t like paying for the pre-mixed stuff because I’m never quite confident about their ingredients. Will be trying this mix soon!
If you haven’t already, I’d love if you’d come join my How To Tuesday link party, too.
