Additional Trader Joe's Buttermilk Pancake & All Purpose Baking Mix notes:
Using a scale for weighing, instead of a measuring cup:
1 cup of this pancake mix (packed down) = 7 ounces
Chocolate version: Add 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 3 tablespoons of
cocoa powder to the aforementioned cup of pancake mix. Add semi-sweet chocolate
chips as well for a great chocolaty taste.
Chocolate chip cookie dough version: Fold 3 1/2 ounces of this cookie dough,
finely chopped, into the batter prepared with the aforementioned cup
of pancake mix (in other words, first combine the pancake mix with water
and/or other liquid ingredients, then add the cookie dough afterwards).

Orange version: Add 2 tablespoons of grated orange peel (rind) to the
aforementioned cup of pancake mix, and instead of adding water to this
mix (per package instructions), substitute orange juice
(no eggs are really necessary).
Lemon version: Add 1/2 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of granulated
sugar to the aforementioned cup of pancake mix, mix together, then add
water until desired consistency is obtained (no eggs are really necessary).
Almond version: Add 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of almond
extract to 6 ounces (rather than 7 ounces) of the aforementioned
pancake mix for a "touch" of almond flavor (or use 1 tablespoon each
of the granulated sugar and almond extract for an easily strong enough almond
presence).
Cinnamon roll version (my attempted answer to an IHOP limited-time offer
from the past): Using the aforementioned cup of pancake mix, prepare
pancakes the regular way with water (eggs optional, but not really
necessary), but also prepare these two toppings as well:
1. Cottage cheese (not cream cheese) icing (mix together 1/2 cup of whipped
cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons of confectioner's sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of
vanilla)
2. Cinnamon "filling" (mix together 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1
tablespoon of cinnamon, and just enough maple syrup to obtain a thick liquid
consistency)
Use both of these to top off the pancakes.
