Mini Pancakes
Mini pancakes are fluffy, bite-sized delights that make breakfast a fun experience for the whole family. With endless topping options, these pancakes are perfect for busy mornings or special occasions!
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup buttermilk or dairy-free substitute
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar or sugar substitute for a sugar-free option
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg. Then add the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 2: Preheat the Griddle
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
- Lightly grease the surface with a bit of butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Using a small measuring cup (about 2 tablespoons), pour the batter onto the hot griddle.
- Space them apart to allow for spreading.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set (about 1-2 minutes).
- Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula. Cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute, until golden brown.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Remove the cooked mini pancakes from the griddle and place them on a plate.
- Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh berries, yogurt, or a scoop of Sugar Free Ice Cream for a fun twist.
