Homemade Pancake Mix

Homemade Pancake Mix

If you are tired of bland store-bought pancake mixes, look no further than this Homemade Pancake Mix. Grab a few simple ingredients and an airtight container, and make up a batch.

Over the years, I have tried several pancake recipes, and this is the best basic recipe I have come up with. We like to cook a large batch of pancakes and freeze them for a quick breakfast. We make them small enough to fit in the toaster, so we just pop them in on high, then grab and go!

Adding blueberries, chocolate chips, and chunks of apple or banana will put a twist on these and give your family something different every now and then. When we have fresh berries, we heat maple syrup on the stove and then add the berries to make a berry syrup to top our pancakes with.

Another pancake option is making them tiny, the size of cookies, for a handheld snack on the run. Simply toast and butter them, wrap them in a napkin, and you are ready to go!

You can make larger batches of this mix if you know you will use it up within a few months. Stored in an airtight container, it will be fresh for a few months in a cool, dry location.
