Make Your Own Pancake Mix

make your own pancake mix

This idea is not original to me. I’m sure it’s one of many tips I got from scouring blogs these past few years. But now that I finally do it, this little tip has revolutionized my life! OK, that might be an exaggeration but it HAS revolutionized my mornings!

My kids love pancakes. LOVE THEM. It all started with those pear pancakes from our first Once A Month Mom shindig. After we had eaten every delectable morsel of those pear pancakes, I made some more. Then about once a week, I’d make some new pancakes and freeze the leftovers.

After awhile I started getting tired of looking up the recipe online. Yet, I couldn’t remember it either. So. I finally  made my own pancake mix.

I grabbed a ziploc bag and dumped 1 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Then I write on the outside which wet ingredients (1 1/4 cup milk, 1 egg) to add when I’m ready to cook. I make up a few of these every time I make pancakes so my cupboard is always stocked with a bag–my husband can even grab it make pancakes for the kids! (I know, it’s wishful thinking.) Then the leftover pancakes are frozen so we can have fresh pancakes the rest of the week.

{side note: I also add blueberries, pureed strawberries, pureed banana or a teaspoon or so of cinnamon to the batter for even more deliciousness. When I use fruit, the kids don’t even use syrup because it is so juicy!}

Not only do I have less processed pancakes, I also have  the portions ready to go (and I can double or triple bag it and make even more!). I think next time I’m going to store it in some of my glass mason jars (I save all of them from sauces and salsas!). I think it might even look kinda pretty!

    • Remarkable post & Outstanding weblog! I would like to begin a blog too but I’ve no clue where to start. I have the revnealt skills to do it (not that hard on the practical part) but I honestly feel like I’m just too lazy to post frequently That’s the matter, if you start you need to go all of the way

    • Wow, I have A LOT of kitchen gaedgts, but have never seen that before!I normally heat my oven to 250, and as my pancakes are done, they get transfered to an oven safe dish and stay toasty – but I like your idea better!Now if I can just convince the hubby that I need another kitchen gadget! 😀

    • This is great. I wonder how much they cost. We were wodirenng at international bacon day, if you guys have any Bacon Day plans that you would be willing to share with us and our readers. Thanks Alexa and the Bacon Boys

  6. It’s easy to make your ain healthy and flossy homemade Denny’s battercakes with this easy-to-follow Denny’s hotcake formula with healthy ingredients, such as Whole Meal Flour and Canola, served with a dollop of cream cheese and pure maple syrup or love, or create your ain healthy flannel cake toppings.

  8. I’d have to check with you here. Which is not something I usually do! I enjoy reading a post that will make people think. Also, thanks for allowing me to comment!

  9. Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

  16. I think what you posted made a lot of sense. But, think on this, suppose you typed a catchier title? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added something to maybe grab folk’s attention? I mean Make Your Own Pancake Mix | ohamanda.com is kinda vanilla. You ought to glance at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create article headlines to get people to open the links. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab readers interested about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it might make your website a little bit more interesting.
