Our Review Factors
What are we looking for? We were looking for well-cooked, light, airy pancakes and waffles that crisp up on the edges. Not only should the ingredient list be clean, these should taste good as well.
Our review factors for Slurrp Farm Blueberry Pancake & Waffle Mix are as follows :
1. Taste
Since this pancake mix is made using millets, the taste will be a little earthier and nuttier than our regular pancakes/waffles. The use of millets should not spoil our entire tasting experience. Moreover, the target audience, i.e. children, should also be able to enjoy these.
We also check for the level of sweetness. Is the blueberry flavor delicate or robust?
2. Texture
There are chances that the inclusion of millets might result in a hard and gritty texture. When testing pancakes – how fluffy and airy are they? In the case of waffles, we check for the crispness of the edges and soft-sponginess on the inside.
3. Nutri-Label
Ingredients : This is a product meant for children and the ingredients used are supposed to be healthier and cleaner than our regular mixes. Which is why we checked for the list of ingredients. What is the source of sugar? Is the no-preservative, no-maida claim backed up?
Nutritional Information : Millets are nutrient-dense and have a lot to offer. We checked the nutritional information provided on the pack for calories, sugar and more. Per 100 gm, Slurrp Farm Blueberry Pancake & Waffle Mix provides 370 kcal of energy, 7 gm of protein, 4 gm of total fat and 77 gm of carbs.
4. Cooking Process
The whole purpose of buying any ready-to-prepare pancake mix is the convenience it carries. Here we check for two aspects as follows :
Mixability : Is the batter easy to mix? Lumpy, smooth, or flowy? How well does the addition of milk and eggs or melted butter combine with the dry powder?
Cooking Time : Pancakes made using refined flour come with a short cooking time. Whereas, those made using millets might take slightly longer. How long does it take for these pancakes and waffles to cook?
5. Product Inspection
Packaging : How well is the product packed? Is the packaging resealable? Pouch pack or box pack? How easy is the pack to store?
Price : Is the product priced competitively?
Slurrp Farm Blueberry Pancake & Waffle Mix – Detailed Review
Product Inspection : Slurrp Farm Blueberry Pancake & Waffle Mix comes in a blue color pouch pack. The packaging looks attractive. The brand mentions the cooking instructions to prepare the pancake. However, there are no instructions mentioned on how to prepare the waffles. The fruity aroma of this dry mix was prominent. This dry powder has a semi coarse texture. It contains big-sized and plumped-up pieces of blueberry. Additionally, sugar granules were also present.
Cooking Process : The process to cook both waffles and pancakes was pretty easy.
a. For Waffles : Since there were no proportions given on the pack, we followed our own. We mixed about 75 gm of this mix with ¼ cup of milk and added one egg. The batter was neither thick nor runny. After preheating the waffle maker, we poured the batter. The cooking time was approximately 6 to 7 minutes. Once cooked, the waffles were tasted alongside some honey and strawberries.
b. For Pancakes : We mixed about 75 gm of this mix into 3/4th cup of milk and added one egg. We prepared the pancakes on a non-stick pan. The cooking time was slightly longer. Since this mix is made using millets.
Team Mishry’s Experience :
Taste & Texture :
Waffles – Taste-wise, these waffles showcase balanced sweetness. The blueberry chunks popping in between deliciously cut through the sweetness and add a nice bite. The cranberries add a fruity mouthfeel. Yum, we say! Texture-wise, we were impressed too. These waffles are fluffy from the center. We loved how crispy the edges turned out. The waffles had risen well. At no point does it feel dense or chewy. Thumbs up! However, since these are made using millets, the texture was not as smooth as our maida-based waffles.
Pancakes – The dried cranberries and plumpy blueberries add a delicious touch of fruitiness. We loved the well-balanced sweetness and the hint of salt helps with this. The texture of the pancakes was fluffy. It has risen perfectly and does not feel dry. The addition of honey and strawberries amps up the entire taste experience.
Made using different whole grain flours (oats flour, foxtail millet flour, sorghum flour), this mix is a healthy breakfast option. Instead of refined sugar, this mix contains raw brown sugar. We appreciate the fact that no refined flour and sugar makes its way into the pack.
