Kodiak Cakes Plant-Based Classic Flapjack & Waffle Mix 18 oz - Pack of 2 (36 oz in total)

This pancake and waffle mix has a really good, semi-sweet flavor. I love that it is whole grain - I ordered the Classic mix and the first 2 ingredients are “100% whole grain wheat flour” and “100% whole grain oat flour”.The whole grain gives it more of a nutty flavor than most pancake mixes and is much more filling.The pancakes were a little rubbery the first time because I just add water to the mix (as per instructions). They turned out nicer when I used oat milk instead of water and a bit of milled flax seed. I also recommend spraying the pan with a bit of vegetable oil.I figured I’d try making waffles too, for this review. I liked them better than the pancakes (you add water and oil to it) as they were fluffier and the flavor goes really well for waffles.I like that this can also be used to make brownies and muffins - I’ll be trying brownies soon!

I made side by side waffles with this and the original Kodiak cakes. The plant-based waffles weren’t nearly as crispy even though they had identical conditions. I haven’t made pancakes yet, but since crispness doesn’t matter, I’m not too worried. However…I’ll stick to these since they assuage my conscience over animal welfare concerns.

The Kodiak I buy at Costco has 4g of sugar, This product has 10g and it is too sweet.
