    My diabetic mother-in-law moved in with us a few years ago. One random weekend, I made pancakes and she came out and asked to see “the box”. I had no idea what she was referring to and had to ask for clarification. It turned out she wanted to see the pancake mix box to determine the carbohydrate content. We were able to figure it out from the ingredients of the recipe.

      I have waffles memorized:

      1.75 cups flour, 1tbsp baking powder, 0.25tsp salt, 2 eggs, 1.75 cups milk (creamy oat milk actually is even better), 0.5 cup canola oil.

      We do fast for dinner once a week and this is my sons favorite, and my wife can’t eat dairy.

        From the better homes and gardens cook book. I have the same exact waffle recipe memorized. Last time I was lazy and neglected to beat the egg whites separately and they came out too dense and nonabsorbent. I always have to relearn that lesson.
