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: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a mini muffin pan to ensure the pancake poppers don’t stick.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, making sure they are evenly combined for consistent texture.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, taking care not to overmix to keep the pancake poppers fluffy.
  5. Fill Muffin Pan: Scoop the batter into the greased mini muffin pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full to allow space for rising.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the poppers are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Serve: Allow the pancake poppers to cool slightly before serving warm with your favorite syrup or toppings.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain light, fluffy pancake poppers.
  • Use a mini muffin pan to get perfectly sized poppers that cook evenly.
  • Serve immediately for best taste and texture; they can be reheated briefly if needed.
  • Try adding blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter for added flavor variations.
