Pancake Mix Instructions

  • In a large bowl, add the flour, cane sugar, ground vanilla bean, cinnamon or cloves, baking powder, and fine sea salt. Whisk it together until the mixture is uniform.
  • Spoon the mixture into a tin tie bag, but don’t close it yet!
  • Print out the instruction card, cut along the dotted lines, and fill out the “to” and “from.” Using a hole punch, punch a hole in the top corner. Cut a piece of ribbon that is 22 inches long.
  • Start to fold over the bag and place the ribbon into the fold. Continue folding over the bag and sealing it shut. Place the card through one end of the ribbon, and tie the ribbon together on top of the bag with a bow.
  • Deliver homemade pancake mix to your friends and neighbors for an easy and thoughtful holiday gift. Make it extra special by including a carton of Organic Valley Buttermilk or Organic Valley Salted Butter!

How to Make Pancakes with Pancake Mix

  • In a large bowl, add the pancake mix.
  • Melt 1 cup of salted butter.
  • Add 3 cups of buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and the melted butter to the pancake mix. Whisk to combine completely.
  • In a large skillet over low to medium heat, grease it well with canola oil cooking spray. Use 1/3 cup to drop the pancake batter into the skillet.
  • Wait for the top of the pancake to start bubbling, about 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook until done, about another 1 to 2 minutes on the second side. Repeat until batter is gone.
  • Serve with maple syrup, homemade whipped cream, or fresh fruit.

Notes

Tips
  • Always weigh ingredients for the best results.
  • If you are making multiple gifts, I recommend weighing out each one separately. This will ensure you get the correct amount in each bag.
  • Make sure to whisk ingredients well so the mix is combined completely.
  • If you don't have a tin tie bag, a mason jar is also a great way to gift this!
  • High Altitude — Follow the recipe as noted.
