DIY Pancake Mix



    If you like light and fluffy pancakes, you will love these!
                                                   
              I've tried many homemade pancake mixes.  This one by far is the best!  Thanks to Momables, I am able to give my kids a wonderful homemade breakfast where I know all of the ingredients involved.  They are deliciously fluffy and quick to make, too!

    Here is the recipe copied from Momables:

    • 1 egg
    • 3 tablespoons butter, melted (optional)
    Instructions

    With a permanent marker write on the outside of bag to add:

    2. (1) egg
    3. (3) tablespoons butter, melted (optional)
    To use DIY Pancake Mix:

    2. Serve with fruit, syrup or whatever else you prefer.
    Notes
    This recipe makes approx. 10 to 12 pancakes
    If adding melted butter to your mixes, make sure to add unsalted butter (or lower the amount of salt you put per mix)
    You can sub half the amount of all purpose flour with whole wheat flour if desired.
