  • Batters in general are by the eye.

    I use Hungry mans, just add water, don't have to measure, just add to batter, the thinner the batter the lighter the pancake, thick batter thick pancake.

  • I just add water also but don't pay attention to the box. Thanks for the answer.

    I don't use a mix.  My grandma's crepe recipe is my favorite!  My kids prefer regular pancakes, so I don't get them often.

    I mix the amounts of liquid and flour the box calls for, but I add at least one beaten egg to make them big and fluffy.  If it asks for  eggs already,  I add at least an extra beaten egg white.

    This is a good scratch recipe which I would not add a thing to, unless I wanted to make blueberry ones.

  • "As per instructions" ... that way, if anything goes wrong, I sue!
