List of Ingredients




9 cups All-Purpose Flour
5 tablespoons baking powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 cups nonfat dry milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable shortening

Recipe



Place the mix in a large, airtight container (a
heavy duty zip-lock type plastic bag does
nicely) or divide it into pre-measured 2 cup
(don't pack it) portions. It will make
approximately 7 portions.

The advantage of store-bought mixes is that
they don't contain anything that will
deteriorate at room temperature. When you
start mixing in whole grains, you are
introducing the perishable oils that you find in
the germ of the
grains. If you decide to put any of these in your
mix, it's best to store it
in an airtight container in the freezer (not a
large price to pay for a high-nutrition
customized blend.)
What You Can Do With Your Mix
We are limiting the options to things which
require a minimum of additional
ingredients. Some commercial mixes give you
choices that involve adding more
of what is already in the mix plus enough other
stuff that you might as well
be starting from scratch -- which defeats the
purpose.
