Prepare for Pancake Meditation

Making pancakes is very calming to me. We also like to take pancakes along on picnics, road trips and commutes.

Here's a recipe for a semi dry pancake mix that will be ready (in the fridge) when you are.

Semi Dry Mix

4 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup hand-cranked wholegrain and seed mixture ~I like: corn rice, barley, rye, millet, poppy, sesame and sunflower seeds
3 1/2 cups old-fashioned or rolled oats
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 cup vegetable oil

Keep refrigerated.

To make Pancakes

1 cup homemade mix
1 cup buttermilk, or a combination of plain yogurt and milk; or 1cup liquid whey
1 large egg
