Our Old-Fashioned Malt Pancake & Waffle Mix was created for cooks who want a reliable, flexible base. One that delivers classic flavor without locking you into sweetness or toppings.
This mix makes tender pancakes, crisp waffles, and a batter that’s easy to adjust depending on how you like breakfast.

Pancake & Waffle Directions
You’ll need:
Milk (dairy or non-dairy), egg, and butter (melted and slightly cooled)
Pancakes
-
In a bowl, whisk together the mix, milk, egg, and melted butter until just combined.
-
Let the batter rest for 1–2 minutes.
-
Cook on a lightly greased skillet over medium heat until bubbles form and edges set. Flip and cook until golden.
Waffles
-
Prepare batter as above, using slightly less milk for a thicker consistency.
-
Let batter rest for about 5 minutes.
-
Cook in a preheated, lightly greased waffle iron until crisp and golden.

Sweeten & Pair Your Way
Because this mix contains no added sugar, it’s designed to pair easily with:
-
Maple syrup
-
Fresh or cooked fruit
-
Jams and jellies
-
Butter, yogurt, or lightly sweetened toppings
You control the sweetness every time.
About the Flavor
We use malt to create that familiar, old-fashioned pancake house flavor... warm, lightly toasted, and balanced rather than sweet. It adds depth without overpowering the batter or competing with toppings.
Gluten-Free Version Coming Soon
Because traditional malt is derived from barley, we’re carefully developing a gluten-free version of this mix that preserves the same old-fashioned flavor using alternative ingredients.
It’s not quite ready yet and that’s intentional. We’re taking the time to get it right.
