Homemade Pancake Mix

By: Kristen Yard

One of my family’s favorite weekend traditions is trying out new a pancake recipe. Nothing beats a stack of homemade pancakes!

Homemade Pancake Mix

There are so many options for pancake toppings, from candy to nut butter, and fresh fruit!

Have you ever craved a plate of fresh pancakes, only to find you are out of Bisquick? Don’t let that stop you! Making pancakes from scratch is actually super easy, and they can be made with ingredients you already have in the pantry.

You can prepare the dry portion of the pancake mix and then store it in an airtight container so that it’s ready to go.

Pancake Mix Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients (to add once you are ready to make pancakes):

  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup milk or buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil

Pancakes are an easy way to sneak more fruit into your child’s diet! Mix berries into the batter, or serve them on top!

I love that this pancake recipe is made out of basic pantry ingredients!

With the holidays coming, this recipe even makes a great gift idea. Package a couple of jars of dry homemade pancake mix inside a cute mixing bowl, along with a measuring cup, a whisk, a spatula, flavored syrups, and chocolate chips. This would also make a cute hostess or bridal shower gift!

How to Make Homemade Pancake Mix:

1. In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients until well combined.
2. Store in airtight container or jar with lid.

If you are adding frozen blueberries or frozen strawberries to your mix, be aware that they might bleed as they cook. Defrost frozen berries on your counter, before cooking, to avoid this.

I still can’t get over how simple it is to make my own homemade pancake mix! It makes me feel better, knowing that there aren’t any preservatives or added fillers.

Make sure you have all of the required pancake mix ingredients before you get started!

1. Add your homemade pancake mix to large measuring cup or mixing bowl.

If you make your dry pancake mix ahead of time, it really is no different prep time wise than if you were using a boxed mix! If only it was always this easy to cook from scratch…

2. Next, add wet ingredients and whisk until well combined.

3. Heat griddle and spray with cooking spray.

Have your kids help set up a “pancake bar” with berries, chocolate chips, flavored syrups, and all of your family’s favorite pancake toppings.

4. Then, scoop pancake batter onto hot griddle and cook 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.

5. Flip and cook on other side 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.

6. Serve immediately with butter, syrup or fruit.

Notes:
Store pancake mix in pantry for up to 1 month

Vegan pancakes are easy to make, if you just substitute a few ingredients.

How to Make Vegan Pancakes

If you are on a vegan diet, or are cooking for someone who is, no worries! This recipe can be tailored to be egg-free and dairy-free, too! 

Replace the eggs with a mixture of 1/4 of unsweetened applesauce and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder. This constitutes 1 “egg”.  You can also make an egg replacement out of flaxseed meal, by mixing 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed (flaxseed meal), wit three tablespoons of water. Then, let it sit in your refrigerator to thicken, for 15-30 minutes before using it. 

Replace milk with your favorite non-dairy milk, like almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, oat milk, or hemp milk. I have also made this recipe with water instead of milk, and still wound up with really fluffy pancakes!

How to Make Gluten Free Pancakes from Scratch

This is the easiest substitution you will find! Use a gluten free all-purpose flour. I prefer King Arthur Gluten Free Flour, but there are many good ones to choose from! Make sure your baking powder is gluten free, too. 

Yield: 8-10 pancakes
