The pancakes made with it taste JUST like my family's buttermilk pancakes, especially if you leave out the egg(s) (I double the recipe on the bag because dh and I love to eat to plate-sized pancakes) and use 3 T. organic flaxseed meal/flour + 3 T. (filtered) water instead. I was out of eggs one day and remembered that as a former vegetarian, I used to substitute flaxseed and water for eggs. Wow! Not only did the pancakes cook up more fluffy than they did with eggs, you could reallllly taste the buttermilk that's in the mix. So that was truly a serendipity! Now I always use the flaxseed/water for pancakes. Also, I love how I can use the baking mix for any of my nonGF recipes and they work perfectly--and in many cases, BETTER! For instance, I make peanut butter cookies with the Pamela's mix, and they turn out soft and chewy, instead of crisp and sandy. (I and dh like soft and chewy cookies.) And for some reason--I know not why--the recipe now also makes about a dozen more cookies, too. :-) (Email me and I'll send my recipe to anybody who wants it, okay?) I also make a fabulous marshmallow brownie recipe with the Pamela's mix, and my chocolate chip cookies are to die for...just like they always were, only now they're GF! I get a big kick out of taking my recipes made with Pamela's Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix to church parties, potlucks, as gifts, etc. and having people take a bite--then say, "Wow! this is SO good! May I have the recipe?"--and THEN I get to freak them out by saying, "Sure! This is gluten-free!" and watch their eyes almost pop out of their heads. They are almost as excited as I am...and almost always, they know somebody who is GF themselves, or their child, etc. etc. I get to pass on great info about the mix and help others, as well as delight the tastebuds of those present. A win-win situation for all. :>) Thanks so very much for having this blog and testing all these GF things!!!! Blessings, Bron I love Pamela’s Ultimate Baking and Pancake Mix.

It is soo good as bread, sprinkled with powdered sugar or made as mini muffins. I sprinkle a little bit of organic sugar on the top of the batter before I put it in the oven to make that wonderfully crisp top! My kids LOVE this and will eat them for snacks or breakfast! My favorite movie, right now, is "Once". Thanks! ~Melissa Our current favorite product is Gluten Free Pantry’s gingerbread mix.

My GF flour mix is a combo of Asian white rice flour and cornstarch. It's more economical and I can make up a batch quickly that will last for months. I just add xanthan gum at the time of mixing to most, but not all recipes. I even use my former recipes just substituting GF flour and making sure all other ingredients are GF. So I guess my GF flour mix is my favorite. Did you know you can make almost any pie recipe into a crustless GF version by just adding 1/4 cup of GF flour to the mix. It works wonderfully for pumpkin, chocolate, coconut, etc. And, my favorite movie has always been The Wizard of Oz. LOL, but true. I almost never buy GF specialty products.

I love the Second Nature Taco, Chili and burger mixes but my favorite product would have to be either maseca or tamari. Currently we are watching a lot of Asian films, but I don't have a 'favorite' movie. This is difficult!

I even used them in my favorite seasoned pretzel mix and they turned out great! They are pricey, however. BUT, if I am yearning for a delicious, crunchy snack, these are totally the way to go!!! I also tried the Namaste cookie mix. I added chocolate chips, coconut, and a little bit of crunched up heath bars. I was delighted with the results! They were the best when they were still warm out of the oven. Are there any brownie recipes that are not dark chocolate? I tried the Namaste brownie mix, which was good, but I prefer the milk chocolate-type of brownie as apposed to the dark chocolate type which seems to be all that I can find. THANK YOU a million times over for your reviews and emails! It certainly makes life a little easier when dealing with what seems like impossible eating! GOD BLESS!!! Laura M.
