I've gone thru a few different pancake mixes over the years and while some may taste better, this is the one that fits just right - in the middle of ease and cost efficiency.
I make double or triple of the base mix and then store it in the pantry - using 2 c of the mix at a time for our meals which include pancakes or waffles. I usually use powdered milk that I've mixed up for the milk, but if I don't want to take the time, I use 1/2 water and 1/2 whole milk.
I'll often add wheat germ or bran flakes to the mix, but not always. It's very forgiving as far as mixes go. If I want it a little thinner one day to do more pancakes than waffles, I'll just add a little water.
Base Mix:
3 c white flour (or 2 c white, 1 c wheat) 2 tsp. baking powder
1 T brown sugar 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 c rolled oats 1/2 tsp. salt
opt: 1/4 - 1/2 c wheat bran or wheat germ
Pancake or Waffles:
2 c mix
2 eggs
2 c buttermilk
1/2 c oil
Mix well so there's no lumps. Spray pans and cook. Makes abt 4 waffles and 20 pancakes.
Note: Buttermilk can be made by adding 1 T vinegar to each c of regular milk.
