I would use about 1/2 of the potatoes less a potato or two after you have drained them. You can save the syrup for the remaining half if you have other plans for them.

1 cup equals 8 oz., so you would need two cups because the can in the recipe is 16 oz.

Do you mean 2 1/2 cups of bisquick AND 2 1/2 cups of pancake mix? or just bisquick. I'm confused. 5 total cups or just 2 1/2 cups of bisquick.

Whether BISQUICK or BAKER'S CORNER or any one of many other baking mixes, the box will say the mix is for Pancakes, Waffles, Buiscuits, Muffins, etc..., so just 2 1/2 cups of any one of those mixes will do.

It is 2-1/2 cups of pancake and baking mix, using a brand such as Bisquick. The total amount is 2-1/2 cups.
