I've actually used straight-up 1-to-1 substitution of yogurt for buttermilk in some recipes, but it probably depends on what you're making. CJ — unfortunately, I have no idea what to substitute for banana in these 'cakes. You could leave off the coconut and go blueberry on them with great deliciousness... likewise, it's probably hard to go wrong with apple slices (or better yet, coarsely chopped apples tossed with a little cinnamon and brown sugar). Maybe chocolate chips, if you're really feeling like having dessert for breakfast? And now you've got me thinking about Jack Johnson, whose music always eats my brain. Thank you for saying it's more complex than it sounds; it makes me feel a little better about that particular weakness. Hi Ellie!

I've also heard that 2/3 c plain yogurt + 1/3 c milk is a decent approximation of buttermilk - what's your experience? I'm going to have to try these soon. Yum!

I just finished off my kamut ones, with raspberry syrup, while reading. I will have to try these, but without the bananas. I'm kind of a purist about the banana. I like "picking" at Jack Johnson's (playing ANY of his music is much harder than it sounds like it should be), but that is probably the only type of banana pancake I enjoy. What other fruit would go with coconut? I have used walnuts and almonds (but nuts go with everything). Any ideas? (by the way, for a fuzzy demon, Otis is very cute) yea! pancakes.
