Make-It-Yourself Pancake Mix

We make a lot of pancakes around here.  Not a weekend goes by without them.  I loathe nothing more than buying packaged pancake mix.  Just seems like something I should be putting together myself.  Alas, here is the recipe I'm test driving, compliments of Pinterest, of course.  What isn't? 

That container?  It is the container that the Kirkland Organic Animal Crackers from Costco come in and it holds a double batch of the recipe listed below :)

Below is the recipe for the mix and directions for making either pancakes or waffles out of said mix.  Good morning to you!
