Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 8 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 2 cup Whole Wheat flour
  • 2 cup Veg. shortening
  • 1 cup Non-fat dry milk
  • 1/3 cup Baking Powder
Directions
  1. 1
    In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, all-purpose flour, salt, whole wheat flour, and non-fat dry milk until well combined.
  2. 2
    Add the vegetable shortening to the dry ingredients.
  3. 3
    Use a pastry cutter, two forks, or your fingertips to cut the shortening into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal with some pea-sized lumps remaining.
  4. 4
    Transfer the mix to an airtight container for storage, or proceed immediately to make pancakes or biscuits.
  5. 5
    For pancakes: In a separate bowl, beat 1 egg and mix in 1 cup of water.
  6. 6
    Stir 2 cups of the dry mix into the egg-water mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
  7. 7
    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
  8. 8
    For skillet biscuits: In a small bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups of the dry mix with 1/3 cup of water until a soft dough forms.
  9. 9
    Pat the dough into a thick circle and cut into desired shapes, or drop spoonfuls onto a hot, greased skillet.
  10. 10
    Cover the skillet and cook over medium heat until biscuits are risen and cooked through, flipping once if necessary.

Note

Storage: Store the dry mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 6 weeks.

Substitutions: You can substitute the vegetable shortening with cold butter or lard for a richer flavor in the biscuits. For a dairy-free option, use water instead of non-fat dry milk in the mix and water or plant-based milk for the wet ingredients.

Tip: For fluffier pancakes, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking. For biscuits, ensure your skillet is hot before adding the dough to get a good crust.
