Organic Buttermilk Waffle/Pancake Mix

I love this recipe because it is so economical, versatile, healthy, and tasty. Keep the mix on hand and make Saturday breakfast a little extra special. Put some mix in a jar for a great gift idea along with a bottle of Maple Syrup. Also, the toppings you can add to waffles and pancakes are countless.

Mix together in large bowl:

  • 3 cups organic oat flour
  • 3 cups organic whole wheat flour
  • 3 cups organic spelt flour
  • 1 cup ground organic flax seed (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon salt
  • 3 Tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 9 Tablespoons organic sugar

Place mix in large zip lock bag(s) and store in freezer until ready to use.

Waffle/Pancake batter

In medium bowl mix together (batter may be lumpy, but that’s OK)

  • 1 cup waffle/pancake mix
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/3 stick organic melted butter
  • 1 egg

For pancakes, heat and grease griddle. Pour ¼ cup batter at a time to make pancakes. Turn only once, careful not to burn them. Serve right away with hot maple syrup.

For waffles, heat waffle iron. My waffle iron takes ½ cup batter to make 1 6” waffle. Serve right away with hot maple syrup.

WaffleMaker

I sprinkle a variety of ingredients on top of the batter before I close the waffle lid. The kids usually request chocolate chip waffles, so I use 2 Tablespoons of mini chocolate chips sprinkled over the batter before closing waffle iron lid.. Blueberries can be placed on top of the batter too. I usually add 2 Tablespoons of pecans to hubby’s waffle before I close the lid to the waffle maker.

When the kids were younger, we would make waffle people using Redi Whipp for hair, chocolate chips for eyes, banana slices for a smile, strawberries for ears and noses.
