Homemade Country Pancake, (Griddle Cakes, Hot Cakes, Skillet Cakes) and Waffle mix

Homemade country pancake and waffle mix

In today's article, I will be walking you through the steps of how you can make your own dry pancake and waffle mix from scratch. Yes, you can use this mix to prepare both pancakes and waffles. The secret is that if you want to make waffles, you'll need to add two additional tablespoons of oil, per each cup of this mix, plus an extra egg, before making them, but do not add any wet ingredients to the homemade mix, until you're ready to make a batch. I will go more in depth on the steps for making waffles with the mix towards the end of my article.

Ingredients for making the dry pancake and waffle mix:

For a small batch of the pancake and waffle mix:


  • 2 cups self-rising flour

  • 2 tablespoons of Splenda, or sugar. Add more if you prefer your pancakes to be sweeter.

  • 2 cups powdered milk, or leave out and use milk when making the pancakes

  • ¼ teaspoon of no-salt substitute, or salt

For an extra large batch of pancake and waffle mix:


  • 6 cups of self-rising flour

  • ⅓ cup of white granulated Splenda, or granulated sugar

  • 6 cups powdered milk, or leave out and use milk when making the pancakes

  • 2 teaspoons no-salt substitute, or salt

Instructions:

In a large bowl, add the list of ingredients per the amount for the sized batch that you prefer making. Mix the ingredients up well using a fork, or whisk.


Next, add the dry pancake mix to an airtight container. I store mine in vacuum-sealed jars for long-term storage.



For making a batch of six pancakes, use these ingredients:


  • 1 cup of homemade pancake mix

  • ¾ cup water, or milk if you didn't add powdered milk to the mix

  • 2 medium-sized eggs

  • 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

  • 2 tablespoons of melted butter, plus extra for making a batch of pancakes


Please, read my next article where I make homemade pancakes, to see how I prepared them from this particular mix step by step.

For making a batch of six waffles, use these ingredients:



  • 1 cup of homemade pancake and waffle mix

  • ¾ cup water, or milk if you didn't add powdered milk to the mix

  • 2-3 eggs (2 large, or 3 medium-sized eggs)

  • 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

  • 4 tablespoons of melted butter, or oil

  • Cooking spray for the waffle iron

Instructions for waffles:

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs well. Then add the water, or milk (if you didn't use powdered milk), add the pure vanilla extract; whisk the ingredients until combined. Then add one cup of pancake and waffle mix; incorporate all the ingredients well and then add in four tablespoons of melted butter or oil. (Remember, the extra oil is needed to make waffles from this mix. If not added, the mix will stick really badly to your waffle iron.)


Spray the waffle iron, or waffle maker with cooking spray well, then spoon about ¼ cup of the batter onto the waffle maker, close the top, and cook for about two minutes, or until both sides of the waffles are golden brown. If using a manual waffle iron, you'll need to flip it over after cooking, so both sides of the waffles are evenly cooked. Cook for about one minute per side.

I tried Martha Stewart's slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies recipe- this is how they turned out

I tried Martha Stewart's slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies recipe- this is how they turned out There's one lady on this earth (besides mom) that I have always simply adored; Martha Stewart. Anyone who knows me knows that Martha has been my lifelong hero since I was a teenager. She's witty, beautiful, and exceptionally talented in so many various ways. Such as DIY home and land renovations to whipping up any tantalizing masterpiece in her kitchen.  Even though I have a multitude of recipes, I had never made  slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies  before. That's until I came across Martha Stewart's recipe for this delightfully delicious, gooey chocolate treat. I followed Martha's techniques and her recipe to the tee, and ooh-la-lah! Her slow-cooker triple chocolate brownies are sinfully exquisite. They are a chocolate lover's dream come true. Martha's slow-cooker brownie recipe takes 3-1/2 hours to bake. While some people may think that is too long to ...

American pokeweed

American pokeweed  American pokeweed is a perennial, and it's commonly known as a survivalist plant. The plant is often referred to as poke salad, poke sallet, pokeweed, poke, among a few others. During the first days of spring, purplish shoots of pokeweed emerge from the soil. The plant will often pop up as a volunteer, and depending on the location, pokeweed can grow anywhere from 6 feet to 20 feet tall. The stalks and stems of pokeweed are an attractive purplish plum color. The leaves are a beautiful green color, and they can grow as big as 14 inches long by 7 to 8 inches wide. The plant's leaves will be tapered at each end. By summer, pokeweed begins producing long clusters of green and white flowers. The flowers turn into green berries that then transition from a light pink to a dark plum color. Pokeweed grows flowers and berries often at the same time and will continue to grow until the first frost. I have never pulled a pokeweed plant up from its roots, but I...

Vegetables that contain protein

Vegetables that contain protein If food prices have you scrambling down the aisles of the grocery store trying to find something that's more affordable than meat but still has protein, know that you're not alone! Back in the days when my grandparents went through the Great Depression, it was really tough times, but they survived through the hardships by growing their own food. There are a lot of veggies that actually do contain protein, and they're packed full of additional nutrients that our bodies all need. Vegetables highest in protein: Vegetables high in protein include artichokes, asparagus, beans, bean sprouts, and beans in general: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, chickpeas, green peas, kale, mushrooms, mustard greens, spinach, sweet corn, and turnip greens. For a few examples: Black beans contain 15 grams of protein in just a 1-cup serving. In fact, a 1/2 cup of cooked beans provides close to 7 grams of protein, which is the same as eating one ounce of meat. As for collar...
