Ditch the Box - Buttermilk Pancakes

Another installment in the "Ditch the Box" series...This allows you to know EXACTLY what your family is eating and they are so much healthier & tastier than the store bought mixes. 

Mix ingredients in a bowl using a whisk and then pour into a mason jar using a funnel. For the ones that require additional ingredients, like the pancakes, I used an Avery label and printed up the directions on my computer and put it on the smooth side of the jar, you can play with fun fonts and colors if you want to give it as a gift. 

Here is a cute label I created for my container that holds my mix, it keeps the recipe easily on hand. I printed it on a shipping label so that is was already sticky.  

Homemade Buttermilk Pancake Mix:

6 c. all-purpose flour

4 1/2 TBL baking powder

4 tsp sea salt

6 TBL white sugar

Preparation:
2 cups buttermilk pancake mix (recipe above)

1 1/4 c. milk

4 tsp white vinegar

1 egg

3 TBL butter

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla

Mix vinegar and milk in a small bowl or cup and allow to sit for 5 minutes, it will become chunky, don't worry, you're creating fresh buttermilk. Mix powder and remaining ingredients, including your prepared buttermilk. You can add in a little extra mix if it's too thin, but don't make it too thick or your pancakes will be dry.
