Mini Pancakes: A Bite-Sized Breakfast Delight!
There’s something irresistibly cute and comforting about mini pancakes. They turn an ordinary breakfast into a delightful feast that both kids and adults can enjoy. Perfect for a cozy weekend breakfast or as a charming addition to your brunch spread, these tiny treats are quick to make and fun to eat. Today, I’m thrilled to share this simple recipe for mini pancakes that promises delicious results with minimal fuss.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat Your Griddle: Start by heating a non-stick pancake griddle or skillet to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (medium heat). This ensures your pancakes cook evenly without burning.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. This blend of dry ingredients will help your pancakes rise and give them a light, fluffy texture.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Make a well in the center of your dry ingredients, and add the egg, buttermilk, and melted butter. Whisk everything together until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons of batter for each pancake onto the preheated griddle. A pancake batter dispenser or a small spoon works well for getting just the right amount.
- Flip and Finish: Wait for bubbles to form on the surface of each pancake, then flip them over. Cook until the other side is a light golden brown. This usually takes just a minute or two, so keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
- Serve Warm: These pancakes are best enjoyed warm, fresh off the griddle. Serve them up with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special touch!
