Pancake, waffle and scone mix

From: Marisa McClellan at Table Matters

I haven't tried this yet. This is a bookmark.

Home made dry baking mix:

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
  3 cups whole wheat pastry flour
  2 cups honey toasted wheat germ (or substitute regular toasted wheat germ)
  1 cup quick oats (or substitute rolled oats pulsed in the blender for 30 seconds)
  3/4 cup cane sugar
  2 tablespoons salt
  3 tablespoons baking powder
• 
  
• Mix all ingredients and store in an airtight jar or zip lock bag in the refrigerator. The dry mix will keep 6-8 weeks if stored appropriately.

Pancakes:

3 eggs

• 2 cups milk
  2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for greasing
  3 cups dry mix
• 
  
• 
  

Whisk eggs, milk and oil together. Fold in dry mix and stir until just combined.

Heat griddle over a medium-high flame and lightly grease with vegetable oil. Drop small portions of pancake batter onto griddle and cook pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the first side, 1-2 minutes on the other side.

Waffles:

See link.

Drop Scones:

1/4 cup cold butter
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup dried cranberries
zest of one lemon
3 3/4 cup dry mix

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Measure mix into a large bowl. Cut butter into small cubes and add to the bowl. Using a pastry blender, blend the butter into the mix until it resembles damp, lumpy sand.

Stir milk into the mixture using a fork until fully combined. Add cranberries and lemon zest.

Drop dough onto a ungreased cookie sheet (this batch makes enough dough for 8 medium-sized scones). Bake for 12-15 minutes, until just browned.

Optional: Portion scones onto cookie sheet but do not bake. Instead, slip the cookie sheet into the freezer. Once frozen, remove the scones from the sheet and place in a zip lock bag. To prepare, replace frozen scones on a cookie sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes.

Let them eat cake-like bread.

I tried the Chickens in the Road grandma's bread in a crock pot using 2% milk for the liquid and making a sponge before kneading.  I following the Artisan Bread in 5 minutes crock pot instructions using parchment and the high heat setting. I flipped the loaf to finish the top. The result was very much like cake. The flavor is similar to Sally Lunn but somewhat denser. Fairly moist, dense and relatively sweet. It took over an hour and a half on one side and at least a half hour after flipping it to get to 190-200 degrees F.

From what I remember:

1.5 cups warm milk
3.5+ cups flour
1 teaspoon yeast
2 Tablespoons sugar
0.5 teaspoons table salt.

Mix milk, yeast sugar and salt and let foam. Mix with half the flour and let rise till foamy and doubled. Knead in remaining flour. let rise for 30 minutes or roughly half the normal doubling time. Shape and place on parchment paper. Lower parchment paper into crock pot. Place double layer of paper towel over top, close cover and turn to high. Check after 1 hour. When bottom starts to brown (about 1.75 hours for me I think), flip using cooling rack and place back in pot. Check temperature after .5 hours. Let cool before cutting.

I used a 4 quart Crockpot.

Notes:
I remade this with 1% milk. It's still good, but not the same as with 2%.

Trying this now.
I did this with one part each of sugar rhubarb and vinegar. I think I'd prefer less vinegar and sugar.
