A big batch of oat and whole wheat pancake mix, divided into four 2-cup bags. Each bag needs only eggs, oil and water to make about 12 pancakes.

Ingredients

Dry mix (full batch)

  • 4 cups quick oats
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup powdered milk
  • 3 tablespoons baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

Per bag of mix

  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 cup water

Directions

  • Stir all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl until they are evenly mixed and no brown sugar lumps remain.
  • Scoop 2 cups into each of four bags, jars, or vacuum-seal pouches, then seal and label them.
  • To make pancakes, whisk together the eggs, oil, one bag of mix, and water until just blended.
  • Leave the batter to rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Pour 1/4 cup onto a hot, lightly oiled griddle.
  • Once bubbles appear on the surface, flip the pancake one time and cook until golden brown.
