Pancake Mix With Fresh Milled Flour
Yes, you can make your own Pancake mix with fresh milled flour. We all know that convenience can be great, but when you’re milling your own flour, finding shortcuts that work can be a bit more difficult to find. That’s why I’m sharing this recipe, and many other FMF dry mix recipes, without sacrificing the quality and nutrition of your freshly milled wheat. So, let's make a dry Pancake mix to fit in a Quart size Mason jar. See below for storage instructions.
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Total Time 10 minutes mins
Quart Mason Jar & Air Tight Lid You could use any air tight container or bag
Large Canning Funnel This is not required, but will make filling the jars much cleaner & easier.
Fabric, Ribbon, and/or Bow *Optional for decoration
Gift Recipe Card Tag *Optional- My daughter sells these prefilled out with instructions or blank so you can hand write them. (Holiday & Non Holiday options)
- 360 g Fresh Milled Flour ~3 cups I recommend Soft White Wheat, Spelt, or Einkorn
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 24 g 2 TBSP Raw Cane Sugar Fine grind (You can sub for sugar, honey granules, or maple sugar- any dry sweetener)
Firstly, mill your flour. I recommend soft white wheat, but spelt or einkorn would work as well.
I like to put my wide mouth quart size mason jar on my kitchen scale, and zero out the scale.
Then, I put 360g of freshly milled flour into the bottom of the jar. You may need to jostle down the flour so it settles. This mix, when done should be a tight fit into the jar.
On top of the flour, I put the baking powder, salt, and 24g of cane sugar. Gently jostle the jar so that everything fits, and the sugar is below the top of the rim, so that you can put on a lid.
Place an airtight lid onto the jar.
Decorate as desired, you can be as creative as you wish! I have a link to the Recipe Cards you see in my photos that you can print out at home! HERE.
See storage directions below.
Prepare The Fresh Milled Flour Pancake Mix
Add entire contents of the FMF dry pancake mix into a large mixing bowl.
Then, add 1/2 stick of melted butter (1/4 cup, 52g), 2 eggs, and 2&1/3 cup of buttermilk (540g.) (Alternative to the buttermilk is 2 TBSP white vinegar or lemon juice plus 2 cups of whole milk)
Mix ingredients just to combine, don't overmix. Allow the pancake mix to sit for 10-15 minutes.
*Optional- Add any mix-ins you enjoy in your pancakes.
Make the Pancakes, and then enjoy!
Storing This Pancake Dry Mix: I recommend you keep your dry pancake mix sealed in an airtight container. They should be stored in the fridge for 7 days, or for longer storage, keep in the freezer for up to 4 months.
Make This With Buttermilk Powder: If you want to add 1/2 cup of buttermilk powder to the mix, then you can just add 2&1/3 cup water, eggs, and melted butter.
Make Waffles With This Pancake Mix: Yes, you can even use this mix to make waffles! But, you will only need to use 2 cups of milk, 2 eggs, and 1/4 cup melted butter or oil. If you like waffles with a crisp outside, I recommend using spelt. But, if you like soft waffles, the soft white is the best option.
