This make-ahead pancake mix and homemade syrup recipe is perfect to have on hand for quick breakfasts. It’s super easy to put together, plus it makes a great gift for a housewarming or new baby. We love to add vanilla to the syrup, but it’s easily customizable to any taste. Try adding cinnamon, maple, or even almond extract!

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Pancake Mix

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt

Pancakes

  • 1 cup dry mix
  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup milk

Homemade Syrup

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla or flavour of choice (cinnamon, honey, almond extract, or maple extract are great options)


Instructions

Dry Mix

  1. Add all ingredients to a large bowl and whisk together.
  2. Add to an airtight container like a mason jar and store in the pantry.

Pancakes 

  1. Whisk egg and milk together in a large bowl until combined.
  2. Add the dry mix and stir until just combined. You don’t want to overmix. It’s okay if the batter is still lumpy.
  3. Heat your skillet or pan with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking.
  4. Portion some batter onto the pan and let it cook until bubbles form on the surface, and the edges look set. Flip and finish cooking.
  5. Finish with some butter and syrup!

Pancake Syrup

  1. Add white sugar, brown sugar and water to a sauce pan.
  2. Place over medium heat and give it a stir until sugars are dissolved.
  3. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes to thicken.
  4. While this is simmering, add your butter to a pan and let it melt over medium heat until it begins to brown. Let it bubble, stirring until brown specks appear (about 5-10 minutes).
  5. Take the syrup off the heat and stir in your browned butter and vanilla.
  6. Allow to cool, then transfer to an airtight container (a mason jar also works well). Store in fridge.
