  How to Make: Your Own Buttermilk Pancake Mix
  
  Pancakes from scratch just taste better than most of the mixes in the stores but when you're in a hurry, who has time for scratch? We'll tell you how to make a buttermilk pancake mix so that you can have great “from scratch” pancakes when you are in a hurry. It's storable and since it has everything included but eggs, it's a great mix to stick in the RV or take camping.
  You can make this mix as large or as small as you like. We give you three choices but keep the same ratio of ingredients to make it any size.
  
  
  Homemade Buttermilk Pancake Mix
  
  All purpose flour cups 4 8 12
  Sugar cups ¼ ½ ¾
  Dry buttermilk powder cups ½ 1 1 ½
  Baking soda teaspoons 2 4 6
  Baking powder teaspoons 4 8 6
  Salt teaspoons 1 2 3
  
  Makes approximately pounds 1 2/3 3 1/3 5
  
  
  For easier measurement, remember that one tablespoon equals three teaspoons.
  Combine all the ingredients and whisk together to distribute evenly. Store your buttermilk pancake mix in a sealed container in a cool place and use it within three months. If you would like to keep the mix longer, store it in the freezer.
  You can buy buttermilk powder in your grocery store in the section with dry milk. (You can also buy a quality, long lasting buttermilk powder on our site at a very good price.)
  To use your mix:
  1. Measure the desired mix into a large bowl.
  2. In a smaller bowl, whisk one egg for every one to 1 ½ cups of mix.
  3. Add 1 ½ tablespoons melted butter or oil to the egg for every one cup of mix.
  4. Add 2/3 cup water to the egg mixture for every one cup of mix. Add the liquid mixture to the mix and stir until just combined. The batter will probably be too dry so add more water to reach the desired consistency.

  The chart didn't print out correctly.
  There are three different measurements shown for three sizes of mix.
  
  See website for better chart.

  Buttermilk, or cultured skim milk, is indispensable to the baker. It is used to give added tang to baked goods and as a leavening agent to make products rise more. Buttermilk is acidic and it reacts with baking soda, an alkaline, to create carbon dioxide bubbles in the batter and hence makes the batter lighter.
  
  Try this in your bread, scone, or muffin recipes. Use it as you would dry milk or mix with water--about 1/3 cup powder to make one cup liquid.
  
  This is a wonderful product for making your own buttermilk pancake mix and the same buttermilk that we use in our mixes. We have included the directions for this make-your-own pancake mix with each buttermilk package.
  
  plastic (not mylar) for your convenience. If you are not going to use it within a year, we recommend that you store it in mylar or freeze it.
