Learn How to Prepare Easy, From Scratch Pantry Pancake Mix. It’s Cheaper and Much Better for You Than Buying Pre-made Mixes.
My household loves pancakes. Really, really loves them.
Quite early on in my journey of healthier choices in the kitchen, I decided to ditch the commercial pancake mix. Who wants all those “extras”?
Here is what I came up with. This recipe is so easy and quick to throw together, and I keep it waiting in a container in the pantry for if a craving hits.
When a craving hits, I mean. Ahem.
Combine a stack of these soft, fluffy and delicious pancakes with some grass-fed butter and a drizzle (or two) of real maple syrup, some good quality bacon and eggs, you have yourself one fine meal.
In our house we eat breakfast for lunch or dinner, too. Yes, we are that devoted.
You can choose to do any combination of flours that you wish in this recipe. All white, all wheat, half and half, etc. Just remember that the more whole grain flour you use, the heavier the pancake becomes and the longer it needs to cook.
My combination of half sprouted whole wheat and half unbleached all purpose makes a nice, soft pancake that I’m happy with. You may like to tinker with the proportions yourself.
