I'm not the speediest blogger in the world. :) Ideally I only use plain yogurt made out of nothing but milk and cultures. (Nothing with things like pectin which are a sign they aren't waiting for the cultures to do the thickening.) However it's not an ideal world so it depends on what tastes you want in your finished product. If you want a strawberry flavor then a strawberry yogurt would work. Just remember to reduce the sweetener a little if you can since the flavored yogurts have lots of sugar already in them. Sorry the reply wasn’t fast.

I was looking for how much water to add to yogurt as a buttermilk substitute - never thought of milk, duh! I used it for banana cake at 5000 ft high altitude with satisfactory results. Thank you.

I use fresh milk and buttermilk starter (where I live I can get good buttermilk in the store). I use 1 cup buttermilk and then 2 quarts fresh milk with cream skimmed off. I also make homemade yogurt that is incredible and way more healthy than the store bought variety. You should try it. I make homemade buttermilk so it has no additives.

I am in the process of putting together recipes,helpful ways to save money in several areas in life and still enjoy taste,fragrences, sights and sounds indoors and out. Many of us have need of not only stretchin our budgets, but stroking our artistic, mathematic and maniacal brians for new and formidable ideas. My gatherings are not for $$ profit, but for less well off and those who have lost the help of mental health or lost income. So pretty much what I look for homemade, easily attained, preferably marked down. I actually make my own yogurt as a bugetary, healthful and creative move.

The only change I've noticed is a "richer" flavor with the full fat version. Yes, I’ve used this substitution with both low and full fat yogurt.
