The Very Best Store Bought Pancake Mix

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 พ.ค. 2024
- Pretty much everyone loves pancakes, but few people enjoy making them. Thankfully, pre-made pancake mix exists to make all of our doughy dreams come true. It's not that pancakes - which are usually just a combination of flour, salt, baking powder, butter, eggs, and milk - are at all difficult to make. But the convenience of having a warm, fluffy pancake that takes minutes to put together is hard to resist. Top it with some syrup and your choice of fruit, and you have all the makings of a hearty breakfast. But which brand should you favor on your next shopping trip? These are the very best store-bought pancake mixes.

What is your favorite store bought pancake mix?
Hungry Jack that you add milk and egg to is the best. I don't like ANY of the complete/just add water mixes.
I don't agree with their review of Krusteaz mix. They claim it's inconsistent and sometimes too tough. The secret is THE LET IT SIT AT ROOM TEMPERATURE AFTER MIXING. It will rise. Do not mix again when you place it on the griddle. Just take a scoop and place on griddle. Spread it out if necessary. It will be so light, you'll have to put an anchor on it to keep in on the plate.
Any brand is good for me, just so I make it my own 🥞🧈🍳🥓
I don't have a favorite brand, but have many in the pantry. I always add spices to the batter so they don't come out bland at all.
Hungry Jack Complete is the best of the "just add water" varieties, better than most of the "add eggs, oil, and milk" style mixes. Of course, there is also home-made (flour, sugar, salt, buttermilk, eggs, oil, a splash of vanilla if you hanker for it, baking powder and baking soda, and yes, both baking powder and baking soda are essential to give the best fluffy result). The dry ingredients can be mixed up to a week in advance and stored refrigerated in a sealed jar or air-tight plastic (horrors!) bag. The home-made, properly proportioned, is the best tasting as well as the least expensive.
Aunt Jamima has always been good!
Hungry Jack, and Pearl milling,(Aunt Jemaima ) always come through with the pancake mix.
1 cup buttermilk, 1 cup flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/4 cup boiling water with 1 teaspoon baking soda and you have perfect pancakes! Add 1 egg for perfect waffles!
I agree!
Don’t forget the malt
I have never had a problem with Krusteaz pancake mix.
Yeah me neither
People (including me sometimes) pack the mix into the measuring cup instead of pouring it into the measuring cups and scraping off the excess. Too much mix results in batter that's too thick.
I love the Aunt Jemima that is a favorite that I grew up with😃🥰🥰👍
aunt jermina makes the best pancake mix always has.
Till they went woke and got rid of Aunt Jemima.
NOPE...at one time in the past maybe, but not since they changed their ingredients. They are bland tasting now.
@@mikeperry6794I mean…it wasn’t the best look. If it had happened quietly, it would have been less annoying. It just felt like a reactionary pile-on.
I grew up on Hungry Jack and Aunt Jamima. But, a few years ago I discovered Jiffy Complete Pancake Mix and it blows both of them out of the park! Jiffy has the best cornbread mix so it stands to reason that they make a great pancake mix. You guys really need to try Jiffy and reevaluate this list.
Interesting, I've never seen Jiffy pancake mix!
Thank you for standing up for Jiffy. In the vid, I was waiting for them to be shown. But, not mentioned at all?! Personally, Jiffy is my go-to for baking mixes. And, as you stated, the cornbread mix is the best!😊
Jiffy is really good and I like their piecrust mix too both a great price
Here,here. I agree! I have one if you want different. I mix 50/50 jiffy corn bread and Golden malted flour. I am 67yr old and I was quite surprised. I used our new waffle maker. Best waffle I ever had!
Hungry Jack is the best tasting pancakes for being so simple. Been eating Hungry Jack pancakes since the 1970's.
Okay, these are friggin' pancakes. I repeat pancakes. They don't have to be high-end as your gonna dump syrup on them. Preferably with a couple fried eggs in between cakes with bacon or sausage on the side. Call me simple but I'm a '60s-'70 welfare kid and this was the highlight of our life when the weekend came. Every now and then we got lucky and were treated to a fine dining restaurant that had more than one syrup option. You may have heard of it, it's called IHOP.
@Yourfather1372 I was a child and it was not my choice. My mother had to work two jobs so we kids had to fend for ourselves. One of the first things I learned to make was Bisquick pancakes with the obligatory Aunt Jamima. On a rare occasion, we may have had bacon (Granted it may have been burnt until I got it down. But syrup makes everything better.).
@Yourfather1372 So, as a young mother of three young children you got to do what you have to do to survive. I had to go to the store with food stamps that basically barely covered us. Ate a lot of friggin' beans and PJs. I won't apologize for my circumstances as a child as I had nothing to do with it. If you want to be judgmental so be it, but I'm proud to say that I and my wife of 33 years raised 3- grown kids, and all though there were tough times financially we never too welfare. I also served my country as a Marine and later as a cop and retired.

@@j.a.3104 I was was glad to do it. Some of the greatest meals I've had was at the senior citizen's home. They loved having us young cops pop by for lunch or dinner. Compared to some of their life stories I pale in comparison. Just a funny aside. My grandmother loved Mexican food but hated beans and when I was an adult I finally asked her why? She explained that as a kid during the depression that's all they had to eat. Her family also relocated from Texas to California during the depression in a covered wagon. When I got older I found it was true it was a covered wagon but pulled by a car. I felt lied to.
I still have a container of Sur La Table Blueberry Lemon Pancake Mix. It's great. But Krusteaz has always been tried and true.
Yum blueberry lemon
Krusteaz mix impressive indeed... consistenly delicious 😋!
Krusteaz mix made with light beer instead of water works. Pancakes are light and fluffy. Beer is undetectable.
Interesting. How did you figure that out?
2 eggs, 2 cups of self raising flour, 1 cup of milk, pinch of salt. Beat all ingredients well. Pour some batter into sizzling butter. Cook for about 30 seconds. Flip. Cook for another few seconds. Freshly made homemade American pancake done (British crumpet) or you can get in car, drive for a while, using fuel, wear and tear on your car, try and find a parking spot, it could be raining, snowing (need I go on?)
Sounds good!
Don't forget the vanilla extract, light brown sugar, and butter. I put everything in a blender to put air in the mix and make it easier to pour on the griddle
The best. My favorite. Especially with buttermilk.
1 cup of buttermilk sub for milk for a taller, fluffier stack.
This recipe is terrible. There should be a little sugar and a fat added. With this recipe, this will come out tasting like a flat, soft cracker.
Krusteaz will always get my money 🥞
My favorite pancake mix is the one I make myself from scratch. I control what ingredients go into the mix exactly to my liking.
But how
My favorite brand is Kodiak. They are high in protein and delicious
My friend who is a powerlifter and personal trainer who co-owns a massive gym somewhere on the East Coast often raves about Kodiak and states the importance of it's high protein content. I hope I can find it in the UK.
My daughter turned me on to Kodiak power cakes and now it is all I use. The pancakes turn out so beautiful and are so delicious and as a bonus they are good for you. Imagine that.
@@richardbambenek2601 They are so delicious. My favorite is the whole wheat and honey and then I also love the cinnamon oat. I think I might make me some tomorrow 😋
Usually it's the Kodiac eating YOU for breakfast.
I have tried Krusteaz brand blue box complete. I was so surprised. Fluffy and moist. What I learned read directions. Don't over mix and let sit for 1-2 minutes. Which I never have. It's best to be patience.
I like that one too. The only thing I add is a little salt to the mix.
Sadly, too many big corporate food producers like Betty Crocker and others have been slowly dumbing down our tastebuds. They've been swapping out quality, flavorful ingredients with cheap, tasteless ones in their never-ending quest to save a buck and maximize profit margins. The result is that they dish out flavorless, mediocre food products!
This corporate cheapening process has been occurring for awhile across America's mass-produced food spectrum - and not just in pancake mixes. If you've recently tasted Cracker Jacks, Raisinets, or Tyson chicken (supplier to KFC and many grocery stores), then you've noticed the inferior, regrettable quality of their taste and texture as compared to these same brands about a decade or two ago.
I guess they thought that if they made these ingredient substitutions gradually, we wouldn't notice. But too many of us do - and we'll spend our money elsewhere on better products that actually tantalize our tastebuds.
Instead of maximizing profit shares, their greedy sleight of hand only hurts their branding and drives away customer loyalty. It's a recipe for how to ruin a legacy of deliciousness.
- from Thomas L. Pilling
Your list could go on for hours, and still just be getting started. I don't understand how any company thinks they will make more money by driving away their once loyal customers, because that's exactly what happens. I NEVER buy their products again. Bad word of mouth is their worst enemy, and that is what happens. No amount of advertising can overcome that. Don't get me started on all the downsized, but higher price crap either........... FUCK'EMALL !
Being a single male that cooks for himself I had always used Hungry Jacks, the stuff you add the egg and milk to. I did not like the complete kind that you add water to, it just tasted plain. I tried a few different brands but they were all the same to me. Then a couple years ago I figured out I could make better tasting pancakes from scratch and haven't bought a boxed mix since.
Krusteaz. Never had a problem with it. Even makes halfway reasonable waffles if you're in a hurry. I fluff up an extra egg white and incorporate it for waffles.
I make mine 1 cup to 1 cup water, and I add oil. OTOH My waffles are Bisquick origianl
I add a quarter cup of oatmeal to the mix. Makes really delicious waffles!
Stonewall Kitchen mix makes awesome belgian waffles. Definitely my go to.
bisquick made with buttermilk used to be amazing.
The pancake mix at Aldi's is great! Should have been included here.
Aldi pancake mix is the best.
Good to know, just bought some as an experiment because the price was decent. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?
I use Krusteaz but will now check out some of the other brands you liked. Thanks for the info!
Aunt Jemima's is what I grew up eating and still love and love Bisquick shake and pour. Gross for anything organic!
She got fired
Hazel: When they changed the name from Aunt Jemima they lost my business. Go woke go broke. Have a great day
Okay, I am only on the second mix ranking and I already have an issue. The video says that an issue with Bisquick is that the mix contains milk and eggs but like, those ingredients are kind of needed, in most cases at least, to make pancakes. If you're allergic, just make your own allergy-friendly pancakes.
I want a mix to which oil and egg, and perhaps milk are added but Bisquick, that used to make a fluffy pancake, now just makes leaden hockey pucks --yuck!
Kodiak, best tasting and whole grain
Red Eagle is the best box pancake mix I've found. Krusteaz is too sweet, and my alltime favorite is my recipe using flour, eggs, milk, baking soda and butter.
All I ever used is hungry Jack. They always turn out perfect.
I love Pamela's GF pancake mix.
Most times I make homemade pancakes, flour, a little sugar (plain or low carb), buttermilk, 1 egg, a little oil & fry in butter on a griddle. Oh & after mixing, let it set for 4-5 minutes before frying
I use Mrs. butterworth pancake mix and I melt a stick of extra butter to make the batter even richer... And Hungry Jack is a very very close second.
I haven't had problems with krusteaz pancake mix
I really enjoy using hungry jack pancake mix 🥞
Southern Biscuit Mix Formula L ! Really good Pancakes and Biscuits!
If you want fluffier pancakes from a complete or add egg pancake mix, just add a teaspoon of baking powder per batch. That's it!
Snoquqlmie Falls mix.. beats em all! Fluffy, tastes fantastic even without syrup!
Totally agree that this brand is the best!
Learn to make from scratch because it's not that hard
Morrison’s Pan Kits are the best in my opinion!!
If your in to malted , try Carbon Golden waffle mix! I mix malted with Kroger pancake mix easy and great tasting.
Pancakes should always be made with milk. It`s better for the taste. Just milk, flour and egg. I make them for my son.
A lot of mixes, many have get to be tried. Krusteaz I found to be the best tasting. Maybe useing whole milk instead of water in the batter mix is what makes the differance.
I have been fine with the unmentioned Kroger brand mix and bought some Kodiak to try out.
I always us Bisquick with milk, butter, & egg yolks, and I beat the egg whites and fold them in = fluffy tasty pancakes.
Yes, folding in beaten egg whites will make them spongier but it's also a lot of extra work so I use Krusteaz and just add a little salt.
I like the Walmart Great Value Mix..I usually use less water tho and use butter milk or yogurt instead.
I still like Klondike Frozen waffles and Pancakes.
Bob's red mills are the best, i buy they oatmeal all the time, best products ever..
Sam's club pancake mix is awesome idk y that isn't up here.... They're so good u don't even need syrup
Krusteaz has to be the best my family really like.
I agree about Bisquick. It used to be good. not now.
I prefer Jiffy pancake mix....makes the best waffles
My pancakes come out great with any brand I get , it’s called technique.
@Yourfather1372 funny
If there’s something in the mixers that you don’t like or are allergic to don’t buy the mix don’t try to force the companies to change their successful recipes find a way to create your own or find one that fits your requirements
Aunt Jemima was a real person. How would she feel today hearing her name was considered politically incorrect.
They can be fixed easily by adding vanilla extract half be the water & the rest amount you can add like creamer vanilla as well or plain of best one you like. Even Bliss I like. Yeah Betty Crocker changed. I like sweet with sugar, great smelling. It is best to add your own though. Yes the texture some thing are bad. I liked Bisquick. I liked Annie gummies, but that's it. Expensive. The Mac & chesse no way. I adore water to pearl milling and had to toss it out. Then did water for half mix it says or a cup & less water. It made 3-4 pancakes not 12 so idk what I am doing wrong.
The best "pancake mix" I have had is Martha White muffin mix, and an egg and milk to the package.
Fowlers Mill pancake mix with PURE Ohio maple syrup.
Grinding it out since 1830.
I always add milk and egg and vanilla
Bisquick
Pancake mix is great,but you to pick your pancake mix,that’s what best for you.
Store brand is the best.
KODIAK is the best and they didn't even test it.. WOW!!
I know right. They call this a contest? LoL
I tried all of them Whataburger pancake mix is the best for 3 bucks just Add Water and get down
Pearl Milling is dead to me. Hungry Jack gets it done,
Two words.....
Birch Benders.
Archer Farms used to have a blueberry pancake mix with REAL blueberries but I can't find it anywhere.
That sucks they took Aunt Jemima off the label.
@@Neil-ht8fv Politically correct nonsense. Why bother after all this time?
@@Neil-ht8fv I agree
@@harrietharlow9929 I feel ya. The woke and cancel culture mob loves to ruin everything that's offensive to them.
Totally agree. 😔
Woke PC BS.
Try king arthurs flour pancake mix
This farce of a comparison video is totally wrong. Bisquick and Jiffy are the tops. Hungry Jack and Aunt Jemima are a close second, however, I'm not supporting "Pearl Milling" until they put Aunt Jemima back on the products.
Krusteaz. Or homemade.
It is obvious many of those pancakes were fried in oil of some variety. Ever notice the many freckled surfaces. A better way to make amazing looking pancakes is to use a dry skillet or griddle and add a table spoon of oil directly into the mix. Very few people will never recognize the oil. Your pancakes will become a single color. 375 degrees seems to be a great temperature. When the bubbles begin to form is a good time to think about turning your pancakes. Sugar should only be added to regulate the browning process. Here is hoping you amaze those gather around your table the next time you fix pancakes. PS! The oil and sugar will enhance those waffles also
Like Hungry Jack and Pioneer.
When are the K.C. Chiefs and the tomahawk chop going to change their tune.. I love Aunt Jemima
The best way to make any food is from scratch.
What about Jiffy pancake
Kirby lane pancake Smith's best pancake mixture is you can buy it in Texas at eightexas at H EB and at Kirby lane restaurants several locations in Austin Texas
Bisquick always socked. Biscuits, pancakes, whatever. (Misspelled purposely).
Bisquick uses GMOs... there may be other brands that also use GMOs but I read this on the Bisquick box
Use buttermilk instead of water. Obese pancakes is the result. I use buttermilk in almost all bread baking.
i was brought up with bisquick and loved it, recipe had to change crap is clumpy and bland, and doesn't mix like it use to yrs. ago
I made dumplings from bisquick as I have for years and they werent as good as they used to be, I thought it was me
Won't buy Aunt Jemima after the company took her off the box. Her family was so upset that she is no longer on the box. I read all about her history.
SAME HERE ! I will never buy any of their products again...PERIOD ! Besides, the pancake mix wasn't all that great either, especially compared to Hungry Jack.
Not watching your whole video to find out who's the best at the end.
Pancakes are a death penalty for us diabetics.
Pancakes are so simple to make from scratch - why use a mix?
Aunt Jemaima was my favorite, but when they removed her from the pancake box they must have changed the recipe k does not taste the same and the texture is not the same. Stopped buying it. They should have kept Aunt Jemaima on the pancake box.
I will never buy Pearl Milling Company.
I won't either until they change the name back. Why not Aunt J's
im bout to go buy some right now... "A name is nothing, you are what you do."
@@Karma-iz4ir And it’s bad enough that my mom bought it and she’s black, she’s a sell out.
Why not just make your own pancake batter?
So we tried the Maple Grove Farms based on this video...
Not great. My wife actually spat it out...
Sticking with Aunt Pearl Jemima Mining Company.
I love pioneer biscuit mix,sprite n sour cream biscuits. I didn't like their pancake mix.
Krusteez? Add beer.
Believe me, there is worse than Betty Crocker…..Krustease is the best to me…As a guy who cooker for teams where we fed thousands of people, Krustease rules
They will always be aunt Jemima to me……Just like the Washington commanders will always be the Redskins
Agreed
Exactly 💯!
You got that right.
Agreed 👍 They should have kept her pic. And called is Aunt J's if they had to change it. It never offended me.
“Aunt Jemima pancakes without her picture is like the spring without the fall. If there is one thing worse in this universe, that’s no Aunt Jemima at all”.
The name change is just another politically correct move to placate those easily offended.
Opinions opinions. People are not the same.
No love for Mrs Butterworth

WTF? The TITLE says these are RANKED but there is NO ranking anywhere. Just higher or lower. Even on the website this is nothing more than someone sitting on a fence saying what is higher or lower BASED ON READING OTHER REVIEWS and seemingly NOT necessarily making them themselves... America's Test Kitchen you are NOT!
Why does it take 12 min to tell me the best store bought pancake mix?
I'm getting tired hearing that 'Glutten Free' is a healthy choice, it's not. Glutton intolerance & Lactose intolerance are deficiency's of digestion. Only a Doctor can tell you if you have the conditions. Another way would be to describe how you feel to your Doctor after eating pastries or dairy. Your Doctor must also be notified if you think you want to partake in a vegetarian or vegan nutrition plan. Don't call it a 'Diet', that refers to a temporary nutrition regiment.
I don't use mixes. Bowl, flour & other stuff, mix it up...Done. I use a pinch of Baking Soda which makes a very fluffy pastry of many recipes.
Its pretty sad that ppl cant take 5 minutes and make thier PCs the old fashion way.From SCRATCH.Shows were the sociaty has lost sight of life/
