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
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin pan to ensure the pancake poppers don’t stick.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir together to evenly distribute all the dry components.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined to keep the batter light and airy. Avoid overmixing.
- Fill Muffin Pan: Using a spoon or small scoop, fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter, leaving room for the pancake poppers to rise during baking.
- Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10–12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pancake poppers to cool for a few minutes in the pan before removing. Serve warm with your favorite syrup or toppings.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancake poppers light and fluffy.
- You can add chocolate chips, blueberries, or nuts to the batter for extra flavor.
- Make sure to grease the mini muffin pan well to prevent sticking.
- These poppers are best served warm but can be refrigerated and reheated in a toaster or oven.
