Pancakes are a great way to start the morning. Having the mix ready to go makes it much easier to enjoy this quick breakfast. This page contains homemade pancake mix recipes.
I make this mix and pack it into a quart jar. This makes a big batch of pancakes.
*Note; 1 Tbsp. of ground flax seed mixed with 1/4 cup of water is a great egg substitute for baking in pancakes, cakes, muffins, etc.
Sometimes I get spunky, and I have added bananas, cinnamon, and chopped pecans to make Banana Pancakes. I have added cinnamon and chopped apples, and I have added blueberry.

Grind rolled oats in food processor until fine, but not a powder. Pour into mixing bowl. With electric mixer add flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Drizzle in oil while mixer is running. Then squeeze a clump in your hand. If it stays together, it's just right. If not, add another Tbsp. of oil at a time until correct. Store in airtight container 2 weeks at room temperature, or indefinitely in fridge or freezer.
To make: Whisk 1 cup mix, 1 cup buttermilk (or 1/2 cup yogurt and 1/2 cup milk) and 1 egg. Let rest 10 minutes. One batch makes 12 3 inch pancakes

What type of icing, the type you can pour like glace or frosting as on a birthday cake?
For the pour on type ~ Powdered sugar, Coco and a tiny bit of milk. Depending on how much you need . . . for 1 cup of P. sugar ~ add 1 tablespoon of coco and 1 to 1 1/2 Tbsp. milk, you can add 1/2 tsp. of Vanilla. It will thin more than you think be careful with the liquid. You can add more coco if you want more chocolate. No real rules on this one! : )
