Keyword: Muffin, Pancake
Servings: 12 mini muffins
- 2 cups pancake mix
- 1 1/3 cup water
- toppings: chocolate chips, sprinkles, fruit, etc
In a large bowl, mix together pancake mix and water until smooth.
Grease a mini muffin tin or use liners. Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with the batter.
Sprinkle in chocolate chips, sprinkles, fruit, or any mix-ins your toddler loves.
Bake at 350°F for 12-14 minutes, or until the tops are set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving.
Avoid Overmixing: Mix the batter until just combined to ensure tender muffins. Overmixing can lead to a denser texture.
Even Distribution of Mix-ins: Gently fold in your chosen mix-ins to distribute them evenly and prevent sinking.
Serving Suggestion: Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of yogurt for added flavor.
Batch Preparation: These muffins are perfect for meal prep. Make a double batch and freeze extras for quick breakfasts or snacks.
