    Title: Pancake In A Mug
    Categories: Camping
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1/2 c Just-add-water pancake mix
    Maple syrup;
    - packed in a leak-proof
    - container
    Butter (optional)

    Freeze the butter or bring the powdered stuff and reconstitute in
    camp.

    Pour all of your mix into a single-wall steel or titanium mug. Add
    water as directed by the instructions, roughly 1/3 cup; the batter
    should be wet but still thick. You want the mug to be roughly halfway
    full.

    Using three or four small at rocks, build a platform for the mug to
    sit on in the bottom of the pot. This elevates the mug so it's not
    directly in contact with the pot, preventing any hot spots from
    forming at the bottom. Or use your DIY Steam Baker.

    Pour water into the pot until it's roughly level with the batter. If
    the mug starts to float, you've added too much. Cover the pot loosely
    with a lid. You can use aluminum foil if you don't have one.

    Light your stove and bring the water to a slow boil. Leave it for 5
    to 7 minutes, or until bubbles start forming on the top of the mug.
    Don't be fooled: The pancake won't brown--it;s being cooked by steam
    and hot water--but it's still fully cooked.

    Uncover the pot (use care; the steam can burn) and poke the pancake
    with a fork to check for doneness; the tines should come out clean.
    Top with butter and syrup and enjoy while hot.

    Tip:

    Cooking with a small pot? Bring a mug with handles that fold in, like
    the MSR Titan Cup.
