“These mini muffins are very nice and super easy to make. I tasted one fresh out of the oven and I really like that their was not a lot of sugar in the recipe. I am looking forward to using different fruit also strawberry and blueberries were yummy.” -Shawnette
How to make pancake mini muffins
Step 1: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, mix together the cane sugar, milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
Step 3: Add the dry ingredients to the wet until just combined, using a rubber spatula. Do not over mix.
Step 4: Grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray and distribute the pancake batter evenly into the 24 mini muffin tins.
Step 5: Top the mini muffins with your mix-ins of choice.
Flavor ideas
- Blueberry: add 2-3 blueberries
- Strawberry: add 2-4 pieces of diced strawberry
- Chocolate Chip: add 1 teaspoon of mini chocolate chips
Step 6: Bake the muffins at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Once the pancake mini muffins are done baking, let them sit for 2-3 minutes in the pan, then remove them onto a wire cooling rack to cool, or serve immediately.
Serve these adorable bite sized pancake muffins with maple syrup for dipping.
These are so much easier than flipping batches of pancakes, and easier to eat too. Just make a quick pancake batter, add your mix ins, and bake for 10 minutes and you have an easy foolproof breakfast!

Can I replace sugar with honey?
I have not tried it, but it’s such a small amount that I think that would work fine.
hi i made these and the butter just hardened as soon as i put it into my cold milk… any tips?
You could try letting it cool for a few minutes before whisking it into the rest of the wet ingredients. Mine has done this before when my kitchen was a little chilly, but they still baked up fine regardless!
could I make these into regular size muffins?
I have not tested these as full size muffins yet, so I am not sure how they would turn out.
