It won’t surprise you to hear that there’s another delicious treat you can easily whip up using store-bought pancake mix. This malty, self-rising mix makes an excellent vegetable fry batter and a perfect batter for apple fritters (and other tempting carb-packed snacks). With both sweet and savory uses, Complete Pancake Mix can do no wrong. Let’s add another one to the list of Boxed Mix Greatest Hits: Quick and Easy Blueberry Muffins.
How to make muffins with pancake mix
Most cakes and quick breads contain similar ingredients: flour, leavening agent, sugar, salt, fat and eggs, but in different proportions. For some, it is easy to bake your own, and they are the people who consider ready-made pancake mixes a complete baking fraud. They are pre-mixed dry ingredients (and sometimes even dry egg powder), so why not do it yourself? To which I say: Exactly!
The entire pancake mix is already pre-measured and combined, so all you have to do is fiddle with the proportions and add a little liquid to create the type of quick bread you want. Less time digging out six different containers, fewer measuring tools, and easier cleanup. And sometimes you just run out of eggs.
