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 and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a mini muffin pan thoroughly to prevent the pancake poppers from sticking during baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk them together to ensure even distribution of the leavening agents and seasoning.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gently pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir just until combined; be careful not to overmix as this can make the poppers tough.
  5. Fill the Muffin Pan: Using a spoon, scoop the batter into the mini muffin pan cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
  6. Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pancake poppers are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the poppers from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan. Serve them warm, accompanied by your favorite syrup for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add mini chocolate chips or blueberries to the batter before baking.
  • Ensure the muffin pan is well greased or use non-stick spray to easily release the poppers after baking.
  • You can substitute milk with a dairy-free alternative to make this recipe lactose-free.
  • These poppers are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheated gently before serving.
