Homemade Gnocchi Mix
A homemade gnocchi mix can be made using instant potato flakes, flour, and seasonings to create a shelf-stable pantry shortcut. Just add hot water and an egg to form a soft dough, then roll, cut, and cook the gnocchi until they float.
Ingredients
- 4 cups instant potato flakes
- 2 cup all-purpose flour or gluten free flour
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon white pepper optional
Instructions
To Make the Gnocchi

- Mix into a soft dough.
