1 1/4 c skim milk
1/2 c plain nonfat yogurt
2 tbsp butter, melted, plus 1 tsp for griddle
1/2 tsp vanilla

Combine milk and yogurt in a large measuring cup, or medium bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients. Combine egg and vanilla in milk mixture, and pour over dry ingredients. Stir gently, just to combine, then cut in the 2 tbsp of melted butter. Heat a griddle or cast iron pan over med, med-low heat. Melt 1 tsp butter, and pour batter on. Cook about 2 minutes per side.

    I see you have cinnamon in it. Is there a cinnamon taste to them? I've been looking for a cinnamon pancake.

    It is just a little cinnamon to add flavor to the pancake. You could up it to 1 tsp to get a stronger cinnaom flavor if that is what you are looking for. Now that you mention it, I will probably do that next time also!

    Have you tried freezing them and heating them in the toaster. I could cut the recipe in half but that would still make alot for one person.

    This is the first time I made these. I would imagine they would be fine like that. I do it that way when I make waffles or other pancakes and have never had any issues reheating. I would just suggest keeping the toaster on low so they don't crisp up and brown too much when you reheat them.
