Pancake Mini-Muffins: A Delicious Twist on Breakfast Classics
Imagine biting into a soft, fluffy pancake, but instead of the usual pancake shape, it’s a convenient mini muffin size. These pancake mini-muffins are a delightful treat that can be enjoyed with your favorite toppings, from classic maple syrup to fruit or chocolate chips. They are perfect for breakfast or brunch gatherings, and their bite-sized nature makes them a hit with both kids and adults.
Ingredients Needed
- 3 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
- 3/4 teaspoons Salt
- 2-1/2 cups Milk
- 1 Tablespoon White Vinegar
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- 4 Tablespoons Butter, Melted
- Blueberries or other toppings (optional)
Preparation Steps
Preheating your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit is the first step. While the oven is warming up, you can prepare the batter.
- Sift Together Dry Ingredients: Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- 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.
- 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.
