Great British Bake Off - Batter Week with Rachels Organic Yogurt

If you have been watching the great British bake off you will know this week was batter week Rachel's organic yogurt have asked me to use their pancake recipe with yogurt as an ingredient. I have never put yogurt in my pancake batter before.

I followed the recipe that Rachel's organic yogurt sent me and I used their plain yogurt with vanilla in the batter. The batter was not any thicker then other batters I have made before without yogurt.
The waffles were cooked in my waffle maker and they came out perfectly as you can see.
I have topped them with Rachel's organic yogurt with coconut and fresh blueberries with a sprinkle of cinnamon. They tasted delicious and were the perfect brunch

Rachel's has launched a brand new page to link to the local farmers that help make all of the organic produce that goes into Rachel's Organic products. You can find out all about the farmers' page here.

    1. The coconut yogurt just gives an added texture and the honey or vanilla yogurt in the waffles just gives it a nice flavour.
