Description

Pancake poppers are fluffy, bite-sized pancakes baked in a mini muffin pan. They offer a fun and quick way to enjoy pancakes, making them perfect for kids or on-the-go breakfasts, with optional add-ins like chocolate chips or blueberries to customize each batch.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1½ cups pancake mix
  • Ingredients listed on pancake mix package (usually water, egg, and oil)

Optional Add-Ins

  • Chocolate chips
  • Blueberries
  • Sprinkles


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the pancake poppers.
  2. Prepare the Pan: Grease a mini muffin pan thoroughly to prevent the pancake poppers from sticking after baking.
  3. Make the Batter: Prepare the pancake batter according to the instructions on your pancake mix package, typically mixing with water, egg, and oil.
  4. Fill Muffin Cups: Pour the batter into each muffin cup until about ¾ full to allow room for the pancakes to puff up during baking.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle your desired toppings such as chocolate chips, blueberries, or sprinkles onto the batter in each muffin cup.
  6. Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake the pancake poppers for 10–12 minutes until they are puffed and lightly golden on top.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven and serve warm with syrup on the side for dipping, making them a delightful breakfast or snack option.
