pancake mix

Post by cornerstone »

This might come in handy can be stored in a big jar or storage tub.

I used the cup measures from sainsburys like a little set of 6 and poundland do them also.

6 cups s/r flour
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup dried milk
1 Tbsp baking soda
2 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
mix together you can half it if that is too much for you to make up use half mix and half water.

top with syrup suggestion.

much simpler recipe (also good for yorkshire pud's ;)

4oz plain flour
1/2 pint of milk (or #amount of milk powder and water to =1/2 pint)
1 egg (or egg powder)


I'd avoid pre mixing stuff as you then loose the ability to vary your diet a dry pancake mix is useless if you want a milky coffee and you used all the powdered milk in dry pancake mix = a very grumpy mrs andy at 7am in the morning :tinfoil


ps my mum used to teach home economics / cookery and mrs Andy is a Chef (no wonder im "well fed" :oops: )
If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong ;)

Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

I am not in a house that would give space or such for hens, i prefer food storage on a lesser scale.

Store cupboard batter pudding, great stuff.

A word on cup measures,.
They were/are used as a simple way of getting the right ratios in recipes, it doesn't matter what 'cup' you use only that you use the same size. There is now a 'standard cup' and those handy sets of measures make part cups easy ( they're called "Scruples" BTW :geek: )
