you could make a snack that my grandma used to make. She would mix flour with water and a little bit of sugar (should be sticky not runny) and fry it with a light layer of butter or oil. Then she would make an over easy egg to go on top of it, and eat.

Cocoa Almond Pancake Mix
Ingredients
All Purpose Flour – 2 Cups
Wheat Flour – 1 Cup
Finely Ground Almonds – 1 Cup
Cocoa Powder – ? teaspoon
Baking Powder – 2 Tablespoon
Milk Powder – 3 Cups or 1 1/2 cup milk or half and half
Sugar- ? Cup
Salt – 1 Tablespoon
Storing The Pancake Mix Making pancakes is very easy when you have your homemade mix. All you need to do is add 1 1/4 cups water, 1 egg, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the pre –made pancake mix.
Preheat your nonstick pan or the cast iron skillet to 375 degrees F. If you want an easier way to get the temperature right, sprinkle drops of water on it and when the drop of water skitters across the pan, you know it is the right time to start making your pancakes
Next, you coat the hot pan with the oil or butter according to your taste. In case you are hesitant to use too much of oil, better use an oil spray.
In order to test whether you’ve got the temperature right, make a mini-pancake and see that it does not burn and depending upon the result adjust the temperature.
Once you have got the temperature right, ladle in the pancake batter according to the space available on the pan. Make sure you leave enough room between two pancakes so that it enables comfortable flipping.
