Pancakes

Pancakes, flapjacks, griddle cakes, call them what you like, but they make a quick and delicious breakfast option.  Like french toast, these thick, fluffy American-style pancakes are flexible too – top them with whatever you want.  These pancakes are super easy to prepare whilst at the campsite as all the fiddly weighing and measuring is done at home before you go and you don’t need loads of fresh milk on hand either!

Pancake dry mix

Mix together in a bowl:

• 1 cup (250 ml) cake flour
• ¼ cup (60 ml) sugar
• ¼ cup (60 ml) dry milk powder
• 4 tsp (20 ml) baking powder
• ¼ tsp (1.25 ml) salt

Pour into a zip lock bag or plastic container and pack with your other camping provisions.

All it takes is a little prep work the day before.
