Homemade Instant Pancake Mix and Blueberry Syrup

This is going to change your life irrevocably. Forgive any scintilla of self-congratulatory preening and accept my boast as simple, enthusiastic exuberance. That is the spirit in which it is intended. But I tell you: you just mix up the ingredients below, keep them in a container at easy reach and then every time you are required to be the usher-forth of good things of a morning, you just scoop some dry mixture out, mix with egg, milk and melted butter as directed and that's it. Pancakes a'plenty, without even having to think about it. You know it makes sense.

Directions

Mix the above ingredients together and store in a jar.
For each 1 cup pancake mix, add 1 egg, 1 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Do not overmix.

Heat a flat griddle or pan over medium-high heat.

Spoon drops of 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot griddle and when bubbles appear on the surface of the little pancakes, flip them over to make them golden brown on both sides. A minute or so a side should do it.

    Amazingly simple and ultimately delicious!!! The pancake mix makes the BEST pancakes I have ever made and the blueberry syrup is divine.

    Lovely pancake recipe that makes nice thick cakey pancakes! Mine came out a bit too salty the first time, so I added more flour and sugar to the mix to tone it down. I will definitely ease off the salt on my next batch. Haven't tried the blueberry syrup yet, but it looks delicious!
