Directions

  • Mix together the salt, onion powder, pepper, garlic powder, flour, and nutritional yeast in a deep bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, dilute the mustard with 1/2 cup water.
  • Add 1/3 cup of the flour mixture to the mustard mixture and stir. Add the baking powder to the dry flour mixture and mix.
