Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups Milk (whole milk preferred)
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

Optional Mix-ins

  • 1/2 cup Blueberries, chocolate chips, bananas, or strawberries

Instructions

  1. Mix Batter: In one bowl, combine the dry ingredients — flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the batter fluffy. Fold in your choice of mix-ins gently to distribute evenly.
  2. Fill Tin: Grease a mini muffin tin thoroughly to prevent sticking. Using a small scoop or spoon, fill each mini muffin cavity about 3/4 full with the pancake batter to allow room for rising.
  3. Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the filled muffin tin in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the poppers turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Cool: Remove the tin from the oven and let the pancake poppers rest for 5 minutes in the pan. This helps them firm up slightly and makes them easier to remove.
  5. Serve: Carefully take the poppers out of the tin and serve them warm. They are delicious on their own or paired with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or your favorite toppings for an extra special breakfast.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain fluffiness.
  • Ensure the mini muffin tin is well greased to prevent sticking.
  • Try different mix-ins for varied flavors and textures.
  • Poppers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat in a toaster or microwave.
  • For dairy-free options, substitute milk and butter accordingly.
