Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined.
  3. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine and whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well mixed.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring just until moistened. Avoid overmixing to maintain fluffiness.
  5. Fill Muffin Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
  6. Bake: Bake the pancake poppers for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Let the poppers cool slightly before removing from the pan. Serve warm with syrup or your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancake poppers light and fluffy.
  • Freeze any extras in a zip-top bag for up to 1 month for easy reheating.
  • Feel free to add mix-ins such as blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter before baking for variety.
