Pumpkin Pie Pancakes & a Stonyfield Cook-a-thon!

Today, I’m excited to be hosting the first ever Stonyfield Cook-a-thon! Along with five other of my favorite food bloggers, we’re having a virtual cooking party and the theme of it is PANCAKES! But not any old pancakes, these are pancakes packed with delicious Stonyfield yogurt! Be sure to check out the recipe and enter to win a case of Stonyfield yogurt! 

You can feel it in the air, even though it’s not “calendar official”. The cool mornings, the crisp fresh air, the feeling that fall is in the air! It’s got me excited, since fall in New England is our favorite time of year. And thus, I’m sharing with you all today a recipe that will have you waking up to fall weather – every day! Whether you live in Florida or California, these Pumpkin Pie Pancakes with a Spiced Vanilla Bean-Orange Yogurt Topping will have you head over heels with the classic fall flavors. Warm spices like nutmeg and cinnamon are laced into pure pumpkin puree, all encased in a wholesome pancake that will have your family craving for more!

As part of the Clean Plate Club at Stonyfield, I’ve fallen in love with their brand, their values, and their products. My all-time favorite item is the Banilla Low Fat Organic Yogurt. Packed with organic bananas from Costa Rica, a pinch of turmeric for color, and organic vanilla, it’s a great yogurt in smoothies and pancakes! It works well in this recipe because the bananas add a good balance of flavor with the pumpkin puree.

Joining me in this Stonyfield Cook-a-thon are five of my favorite food bloggers. Each of them is bringing to the table a delicious pancake recipe made with Stonyfield yogurt. With a total of six pancake recipes, both sweet and savory, you’ve got almost a week’s worth of breakfasts all ready to go!
