The packaging is simple, and the directions are easy. Like any recipe with wet and dry ingredients: in one bowl, whisk an egg, then whisk in a cup of milk. In another bowl, empty the entire packet of Pedon’s dry pancake mix then slowly incorporate your liquid into the dry mix with the whisk. Flex your whisking muscles to ensure a smooth batter and a couple minutes later you’re ready cook it stove-top.
The aroma while it’s cooking was a big tease, because it took a few minutes before the top dried and I could turn it over. Check out the gorgeous, even coloring once I flipped it.
The flavor of the finished product was similar to what I expected a pancake might be, and the texture was very good. No, it doesn’t taste exactly like a wheat-flour pancake but I didn’t mind. Salt content was perfect, and the option of adding sugar to the batter isn’t necessary; instead, pour some quality maple syrup on top and enjoy. Pedon’s got a winner: they’re in the same league as Pamela’s pancake mix which is the gluten-free gold standard in our household.
After offering a taste to my family, I polished off the entire batch. Win.
