Scale
Dry Mix Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
To Make Pancakes (for about 6 servings)
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
Instructions
- Prepare the dry mix: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined. Store the dry mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.
- Make the pancake batter: To make pancakes, whisk together 1 cup of the pancake mix, 1 cup of milk, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter or oil until just combined. Avoid overmixing; some lumps are okay for fluffier pancakes.
- Preheat the cooking surface: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for 2–3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Then, flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, or butter.
Notes
- You can double or triple the dry mix to keep it on hand for quick breakfasts.
- Add cinnamon or vanilla extract to the batter for extra flavor.
- For dairy-free pancakes, substitute non-dairy milk and use oil instead of butter.
