I totally understand not being able to continue always spending but pancreatitis can be fatal and his cases sound quite severe. When a dog has a health issue and homecoooking is desired, it really can't be done without the help of a nutritionist. I would say it is very dangerous to try. There are a couple Yorkies on YT who have pancreatitis and their owners did talk to a nutritionist, so maybe they will have some ideas.

If you can't get an exact recipe from a trusted nutritionist (maybe somebody's elses nutritionist from YT) and know the fat level, commercial food would be safer.
