Y’all might have guessed that I would include some gifts in a jar in my handmade gift series. This Apple Cinnamon Pancake Mix Gift in a Jar is perfect for anyone on your Christmas gift-giving list. I have included the recipe and free printable labels below for you to create your own gift in a jar quickly and easily.
I wanted my gift in a jar to be a gift well after the pancake mix was gone. So I did a little paint-dipped technique on my jar before filling it with the mix. Just grab some DecoArt Gloss Enamels in true red
and desert turquoise to match the printable labels. Paint a few coats on the outside of the jar as shown below allowing to dry between coats. You will need to bake the jar to cure the paint before adding your pancake mix.
Now let’s fill that jar!
Apple Cinnamon Pancake Mix Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 cups flour
- 4 tsp cinnamon
- 2 1/4 tbsp sugar
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup diced dried apple pieces

Oh, and yes, I did make some pancakes! The instructions serve 5 and use about 1/2 of the mix at a time. I prefer mine with a drizzle of syrup. YUM!
I used glue dots to attach my labels so they would not be permanent and could be removed from the jar once the mix was finished.
I used washi tape around the lid band to give it another pop of red.

Love this, going to make these, we eat pancakes often for our breakfast, sometimes for our supper. Could I substitute another fruit if apples not available or just want a change? Thanks so much for labels.
