Vegan Whole Grain Waffle & Pancake Mix

Jeanette's Pumpkin Whole Grain Waffle recipe that I posted last week is actually a modification of Natalie's Vegan Whole Grain Waffle/ Pancake Mix. I've never made this recipe myself (I've been making the pumpkin version since we purchased our Teflon-free waffle maker), but I have eaten these waffles and pancakes dozens of times and I can attest that they are delicious. This recipe is awesome because you can mix up all the dry ingredients in advance and then use a cup (or more) of dry mix plus nothing but water and oil for an easy homemade breakfast anytime. My sister often takes this mix with her when she travels (so she can make her children a vegan breakfast) or even camping. Your own vegan homemade waffle/ pancake mix anywhere anytime.

Natalie's Vegan Waffle & Pancake Mix

Ingredient	Single	4 x	8 x	12 x	16 x
Wheat / white flour*	1¼ cup	5 cups	10 cups	15 cups	20 cups
Ground flax seed (or more flour)	¼ cup	1 cup	2 cups	3 cups	4 cups
Baking powder	1 Tbsp	¼ cup	½ cup	¾ cup	1 cup
Sugar	1 Tbsp	¼ cup	½ cup	¾ cup	1 cup
Salt	½ tsp	2 tsp	4 tsp	2 Tbsp	2 Tbsp + 2 tsp
Powder egg substitute**	1½ tsp	2 Tbsp	¼ cup	¼ cup + 2 Tbsp	½ cup
Cinnamon	~ ½ tsp	1½ tsp	1 Tbsp	1½ Tbsp	2 Tbsp
Nutmeg	~ ½ tsp	1½ tsp	1 Tbsp	1½ Tbsp	2 Tbsp
Total Mix Volume	1½ cups	6 cups	12 cups	16 cups	24 cups
Water	2 cups + 2 Tbsp
Oil	2 Tbsp

*My sister uses half whole wheat flour and half white flour.
**My sister uses Ener-G Egg Replacer as the powdered egg replacement.

For each 1 cup of dry mix	Oil	Water
Pancakes	4 tsp	~ 1 1/3 cups
Waffles	¼ cup	~ 1 1/3 cups

My sister usually mixes up 8 or 16 times the recipe and stores it in an air tight container. Then she can make up any number of cups of mix when she is ready to cook. If you want to make up more than 8 times the recipe, you may need to do it in two batches unless you have a really big bowl (see Total Mix Volume).

It works well to make up lots of waffles at one time (maybe 8 cups of mix) and then freeze the waffles in air tight bags. Just heat in toaster before eating. If you are making waffles to be frozen and reheated later, cook them on a light setting so they are not too dark and crunchy when reheated/ toasted.

Makes a Great Gift

My sister told me she loves to give the mix as a gift to teachers, neighbors, and friends. Just fill a quart jar or other container with the mix, print or write up mixing instructions and tie them on with a ribbon. Voila! An inexpensive delicious homemade gift.
