Notes

Pancake in a Mug with Pancake Mix

You would just mix 1/3 cup Aunt Jemima mix + 3 tablespoons milk (or water) + 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (or melted butter) + Optional: a few drops of vanilla extract or a pinch of chocolate chips. Use a spoon to mix together into a batter. I like to spray the mug so it doesn't stick. Heat on 100% power for 1.5 minutes.
