Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 ¾ cups water
• 1 cup diced dried apples
• ½ cup nonfat dry milk
• 5 tablespoons powdered eggs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine whole wheat flour, dried apples, dry milk, powdered eggs, and baking powder in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake until well combined. Pour water and vegetable oil into small lidded containers.

Step 2

Pour water over the whole wheat flour mixture when you're on the trail. Mix just until combined.

Step 3

Heat a cast iron skillet over a camp stove. Grease with oil. Drop batter by large spoonfuls into the skillet and cook until bubbles appear on the surface, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
