Don’t want a mix, just a good pancake recipe? Here’s one I’ve used for 25 years—“Foolproof Pancakes”. The original recipe was clipped out of a local newspaper when I was a newlywed. I can't tell you how many other recipes I tried first. This was the best.
Pancake Mix
12 c. flour (I like to use 6 c. white flour, 6 c. whole wheat flour)
3 c. dry milk powder
¼ c. sugar
2 Tbsp. baking soda
2 Tbsp. salt
1 cup coconut oil or shortening
Mix together the flour, milk powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Add the coconut oil or shortening, and cut it in until well distributed. Store in a container with a tight-fitting lid. Makes about 16 cups.
To use it, combine 1 1/4 c. mix, 1 egg, 1 cup water. You'll get about 12 batches this size from the whole mix.
You can make pumpkin pancake mix, too!
