I love homemade pancakes in the morning... I hate the extra time it takes to make them. Preparing a bulk mix ahead of time cuts the prep in half, yay! This recipe can't be used if you want to soak your flour overnight, because the baking powder and salt, which inhibit all the good stuff we get from soaking, are already mixed in. (When soaking, you can mix the sweetener into the dry ingredients ahead of time, but that's about it.) So this recipe is for your basic, easy, I-WANT-PANCAKES-NOW! breakfast.
Bulk Pancake Mix
5 cups organic unbleached all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups organic whole wheat flour
6 Tbsp baking powder (make the last one shallow)
5 tsp salt
5 Tbsp cane sugar
Sift all ingredients together and mix until combined well. Store in a cool, dry place until ready to use.
Bulk Mix Pancakes
1 cup bulk pancake mix
1 cup milk
1 egg
2 Tbsp coconut oil or butter, melted
Whisk together melted coconut oil and milk. (Do this first to cool the hot oil/butter so that it doesn't cook the egg when mixed together.) Whisk in egg. Slowly whisk in bulk mix until well incorporated.
Pour batter in 1/4 cupfuls onto medium heat skillet. If using stainless steel, lightly butter the skillet first. Cook until the edges turn dry and bubbles start to form in the middle. Then flip, cooking for one more minute or until pancakes are cooked through.
Maple Oatmeal Pancakes
This is a simple (and DELICIOUS!) variation on the above recipe.
1 1/8 cups bulk pancake mix
1 cup milk
1 egg
2 Tbsp coconut oil or butter
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup oats (not instant)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
Whisk together milk and oil. Then whisk in egg and maple syrup. Slowly whisk in bulk mix and cinnamon until well incorporated, and finally stir in your oats. Cook as described above.
