The whole family loved these, even my very picky eaters! I used vanilla yogurt instead of buttermilk because I didn't have any- it seemed to be a good substitute. These were a great consistency and I cooked them on a low heat for quite a while- no problem flipping them. We omitted the corn (picky eaters couldn't cope)... still yummy and my daughter said she liked these better than regular pancakes! A healthier alternative, too!
