Love the idea of making your own mixes...not only for the $$ savings, but to eliminate the nasty ingredients in the prepackaged mixes!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!
The savings are MUCH larger if you compare homemade mixes using organic ingredients vs. pre-made organic mixes. ASTRONOMICAL difference! That's considering if you can even find a certain organic mix! Here in Nebraska, that can be tough to do.
Agree! My personal ingredients are organic, but for the purposes of showing just how cheaply we can do this, I compared conventional ingredients. It really doesn’t take any time to do it. Even when I was filming, I couldn’t believe I completed 3 in approximately 5 min.
Thanks for showing us how to make our own, healthier, cheaper mixes. I appreciate you sharing the links for the different mixes. Have a wonderful week!!
I made the no yeast pizza crust recipe you linked and cut the ingredients in half. It was perfect for the two of us. No more Martha White at our house! Thanks.
Hey, new subscriber from Australia ☺️ i just wanted to say thank you for the video. I haven't compared homemade mixes to store brought pre mixes. Food here has sky-rocketed, so i have a feeling our savings would be higher again. On average, it costs $350+ per week to feed our family of 5. It's time for me to get back into food preservation & bulk buying and just make the time. I have had enough of the costs & disgusting ingredients. If you can even call them that. 😂 Thank you for the reminder. 🥰
Great to have you! It really is disgusting to see what they’re passing off as food these days, isn’t it? WOW! Groceries are expensive our your way. Hopefully you can find a few extra ways to cut expenses. Thank you for watching, and I can’t wait to “see” you back soon!
No. I have an Ankarsrum. I looked at the Bosch and decided this one could handle more dough. Here’s a link to check it out! sovrn.co/1y045hc (affiliate link)
I used hard. I tried not to get too in the weeds with the flour conversation, as most will buy AP. Definitely could have used soft for the cake, but I ground a bunch at once and let it be. Normally I used 1/2 bread and 1/2 hard white for my pizza crust, but I’ve used a bunch of variations.
You do lose some of the benefits of freshly milled. That said, if I had used AP, none of those benefits would have been there anyway. For the sake of comparing to what’s on the store shelf, you’re still way ahead to mill it in advance. One alternative would be to jar up the other ingredients, put them in a very small jar and write the amount of flour to add as one of the missing ingredients.
I did. The recipe calls for regular milk, but I use powdered buttermilk instead. It calls for 3 cups of milk, so I just used the cup to replace based on the directions on my powdered buttermilk package. I was initially mixing it up on the side instead of incorporating with the dry ingredients. This is also doable in any other recipe calling for milk. I LOVE powdered buttermilk because of its shelf life, since we don’t drink much regular milk at all.
Yes, my mom actually noticed that first, but I hadn't been home to fix it! Here is the correct link. www.allrecipes.com/recipe/244638/no-yeast-pizza-crust/
Thank you for doing this! We have in the past several months tried to stay away from certain packaged ingredients and cook/bake from scratch. I kept pausing the video to tell my husband the cost savings - even he was shocked! That pizza dough label with the “warning” was quite concerning! I shocked that is allowed to be sold!! 🤯
Same! I redid the math multiple times, actually. The thought is that they’re “cheap” as is, but in reality, they’re way overpriced! If you know anyone else who might like it, please share! 💕
I bought a cookbook years ago called Make Your Own Groceries. It’s wonderful. Homemade taco seasoning mix, shake and bake mix, onion soup mix, etc.
That’s awesome! We do those same things. I’ll have to check out that cookbook. Thanks for the recommendation!

I love this idea! Thank you. Is that a Bosch mixer you use? 😊Val C

Could you add powdered eggs to the mix or in a small jar to be added to the mix? Thanks for the video, looking for something like this
Yes you can! Just make sure to adjust the amount of water added.
Great video! Did you use soft or hard ground wheat?

Is it ok to premill your flour and not use it right away? I heard you have to use it right away to have all the health benefits.

freezing the flour helps save some of the nutrients.
When you use powdered buttermilk in the waffle mix, it’s 1 cup per recipe? Did I see that correctly? I want to make some of this. 😊

@@thehometownhomestead Thank you
Just curious, as I love trying different pizza crust recipes... the online recipe is different from your mix?
Yes, my mom actually noticed that first, but I hadn't been home to fix it! Here is the correct link. www.allrecipes.com/recipe/244638/no-yeast-pizza-crust/
