Frugal Egg-free Pancakes! ($.06 each!)


Need a frugal breakfast food? In a batch of pancakes, an expensive ingredient that is able to be easily removed is all the eggs. I'd rather have them scrambled on the side anyways!

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour (approx. $.19)
4 tsp baking powder (approx. $.10)
4 tsp sugar (pennies or free if you have convenient store leftovers!!)
1/4 tsp cinnamon (penny)
2 cups milk (approx. $.45)
2 tbsp water (free-ish)
3 tbsp canola oil (approx. $.11)
1 tsp vanilla extract (pennies)

Mix all wet ingredients and mix all dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Add all mixed dry ingredients to the wet and mix very thoroughly! Drop on a hot skillet 1/4 cup at a time. Makes 14 pancakes for around only $.90!! That's only about $.06 per pancake... can't beat that!!  :-D

TIP: These are so easily made ahead. Make up a big 'ol batch and separate the pancakes using wax paper. Keep in the fridge for a few day or throw them in the freezer. Quick and yummy before school breakfasts on the cheap!
