Ingredients
Dry Mix
- 3 cups plain flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 8 tbsp milk powder If you don't have milk powder leave it out. Use milk instead of water when making a batch.
- 1.5 tsp salt
Ingredients to make up one batch
- 2 cups dry mix
- 1 cup water or milk Use milk if you didn't add milk powder to the dry mix.
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
Instructions
- Combine the dry mix ingredients and store in an airtight jar or container. This amount fills my 1 ½ litre glass jar.
To Mix One Batch
- Add 2 cups of dry mix to a bowl and add wet ingredients. Combine well with a whisk. The batter should be nice and thick, almost like paint. If you like thinner pancakes feel free to add more water. If you like fluffy pancakes keep it thick.
To Cook
- Heat a nonstick frying over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.
- For each pancake, place 1 tsp of batter into the pan. Cook until you see bubbles form on the surface. Turn and cook for a further 1 to 2 minutes or until pancakes are cooked through.
- Garnish with your favourite toppings.
Dairy-Free Version
- Omit the milk powder from the dry mix batch. Add your favourite dairy-free milk instead of the regular water volume.
Notes
My personal favourite pancake topping is lemon, sugar, and butter.
This recipe is so versatile. I use this mix for my pancakes, waffles, pikelets, and fritters.
