Preparation Steps

Preheating your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit is the first step. While the oven is warming up, you can prepare the batter.

  1. Sift Together Dry Ingredients: Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, stir together milk and vinegar. Let it sit for about a minute to allow the mixture to thicken slightly. Then, whisk in eggs and vanilla extract.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Add melted butter and mix until smooth. If the batter is too thick, you can add a little more milk.

Assembling and Baking

Generously spray a mini-muffin pan with baking spray. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter. If using blueberries or other toppings, gently drop them into each cup.

Bake for 8 to 9 minutes at 425 degrees, or until the tops are golden brown. For a softer muffin, you can bake at 400 degrees for about 11 minutes.

Serving and Customization

Once the pancake muffins are done, let them cool in the pan for a minute or two before turning them out onto a plate. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as warm syrup, butter, or fresh fruit. The beauty of these mini-muffins is their versatility—feel free to experiment with different toppings to create your perfect combination.
