Instructions
 

For the Dry Mix:

  • To make the Dry Mix, add flour, sugar, baking powder and salt to a bowl.
  • Whisk together until combined.
  • Transfer to a half gallon jar and seal tightly for storage.

For Pancakes:

  • Add a cup of Dry Mix to a bowl. Add the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface. When the pan is heated, pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake.
  • Cook until the edges begin to look set. Flip pancakes with a spatula and cook until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

For Waffles

  • Preheat Waffle Iron according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Add two cups of Dry Mix to a bowl. Add the wet ingredients and cornstarch (optional). Mix until combined.
  • Lightly grease the waffle iron with butter or oil.
  • Pour batter onto the center of the waffle iron to cover about two-thirds of the iron. Close the lid and cook until golden brown.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

The cornstarch is optional, but can be added to waffle batter if you’re looking for crispier waffles.
