Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups Milk (whole milk preferred)
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Optional Mix-ins

  • 1/2 cup Blueberries or chocolate chips or sliced bananas or strawberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare the pan: Preheat your mini muffin tin or a non-stick mini pancake pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter or non-stick spray to ensure the poppers don’t stick.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined to ensure even leavening and flavor distribution.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
  4. Make the batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the pancake poppers tender.
  5. Add mix-ins: Carefully fold in your choice of optional mix-ins like blueberries, chocolate chips, bananas, or strawberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Fill the pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin or mini pancake pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full for proper rise during cooking.
  7. Cook the pancake poppers: Cook over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden and bubbles form on the surface, then flip carefully and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  8. Serve and enjoy: Remove the pancake poppers carefully from the pan and serve warm with maple syrup, honey, or your favorite toppings for a delightful breakfast bite.

Notes

  • You can substitute milk with almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • For fluffier poppers, avoid over-mixing the batter.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in a microwave or toaster oven before serving.
  • Feel free to experiment with different mix-ins like nuts or dried fruits.
