It’s been a long, long time, my friends.
I’ve been out of the pancake game for awhile now. You see, when you write a cookbook devoted to pancake recipes, you eat a lot of pancake recipes. And, I mean, I love pancakes. That’s why I wrote a cookbook dedicated to them.
But, one can only eat so many pancakes over a short period of time before moving onto other delicious breakfast items. I’ve been on a savory breakfast kick for awhile now, actually. My homemade biscuits filled with cheesy scrambled eggs and my Mexican breakfast casserole have been in heavy rotation lately.
But, when Silk reached out and asked me to tell you guys about their new line of coffee creamers, I knew I was getting my pancake on. Coffee creamers are such a fun way to flavor pancakes!
I made super thick and fluffy pancakes (the only way to eat a pancake, if you ask me) that are loaded with vanilla flavor. I skipped the buttermilk in favor of Vanilla Silk Almond Creamer for a dairy free recipe that is pretty darn delicious. My kids couldn’t get enough of these pancakes!
Pair these pancakes with a cup of hot coffee, lightly sweetened with Silk Almond Creamer and you have a perfectly flavored breakfast. I love the warm, indulgent flavor of vanilla!
I’m totally back in the pancake game now, you guys. These were heavenly and oh so easy.
I added a little vanilla to warm maple syrup, which is an oh-so-simple step that really makes a difference in the finished product! I think you’re going to love these just as much as we did!

I’ve used the creamer before in my oatmeal for different flavors for a long time but never thought about making pancakes with it! This opens up a lot of possibilities! Thanks!!
