Buttermilk Pancake Mix

You can save money by preparing a big batch of this dry pancake mix to use whenever the mood for a special breakfast strikes. Instructions are included below for making the basic pancakes, but the mix, just like its store bought counterpart, can be used for other recipes as well.

For Mix:

2 C dry buttermilk powder
8 C flour
2/3 C sugar
8 tsp. baking powder
4 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. salt


To Make Pancakes:

1 egg
2 T vegetable oil
1 1/2 C pancake mix (see above)
1 C water (more as needed)

To Make Mix (Recipe Makes About 10 Cups) Sift all ingredients together. Store in an airtight container and use within 6 months of making.

To Make Pancakes with Mix (Recipe Makes About 10 Pancakes)

Mix all ingredients until blended together and let the mixture stand for about five minutes.

Lightly oil a large griddle or skillet (preferably non-stick). Heat skillet over medium heat. You can tell if your skillet or griddle is hot enough by flicking a drop or two of water on its surface. The water should skitter around and quickly evaporate if the pan is hot enough. Spoon batter into hot oiled skillet, allowing about 3 tablespoons per pancake. Cook pancakes for about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes. You will know your pancakes are ready to be turned over when large bubbles form on the uncooked surface. Flip pancakes and cook for about 1 1/2 minutes on the other side. Serve immediately or keep warm on a baking sheet in a 200 degree F oven until all pancakes are cooked.

Answer 3

Put about ten mini mars into a saucepan, sliced, with a very small amount of milk (about two tablespoons), and stir until the mars have melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy - be careful, if the heat is too high it'll stick!

Dress the pancake with a little sugar, a lot of lemon juice, slice a banana on it, spoon a little chocolate over the banana, roll the pancake, top with a little more sugar, lots of lemon juice, lots of chocolate sauce and add a little pouring cream!

The melted caramel in the mars bars makes it a really rich smooth sauce.

Cholesterol city, but scrumptious!

The basic pancake recipe is fine - I like it a little richer, so I use about a cup and a half of flour, 2 eggs, about half to three quarters pint of milk, throw them all into a bowl together and whisk with a wire whisk, ready in no time. Let it stand for about 5-10 minutes, then give it a quick mix again, add a little more milk if it has thickened too much, and off you go!

Answer 4

Answer 7

Lots of butter and syrup - It's cheaper for me to buy the instant mix, so I always use Hungry Jack Complete...add milk, melted butter and eggs to the mixture to make tastier and extra fluffy. I love pancakes!

Freshly squeezed Lemon Juice and a sprinkling of caster sugar - the simple traditional 1940s topping! Yummy and very refreshing because you don't end up feeling bloated!
