How To Make Pancake Muffins

Pancake Mix Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate large bowl whisk together buttermilk, eggs and melted butter. While whisking, pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture and mix just until combined, the batter will be slightly lumpy -thats ok..don't overmix. Allow batter to rest 2 minutes.

Decorate Pancake Muffins

Spray each well of two 24 mini muffin cup pans with non-stick cooking spray. Fill each muffin well about ⅔ full or a heaping tablespoon into each. I have a 1 ½ tablespoon cookie scoop and filled it nearly full, and it bakes up to look just like a muffin
Add 4 blueberries, 1 raspberry, or 1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips for each pancake muffin.

Pancake Muffins with different toppings of blueberries, raspberries, and chocolate chips, serve for breakfast or brunch.

Bake Pancake Muffins

Bake in pre-heated oven 10 - 12 minutes they won't get much color, but they should be nice and puffed and centers should be dry. You can break one open to test or insert a toothpick which should come out clean.
Cool one minute then invert onto a wire rack for the blueberry version you may need to run a sharp knife around edges to loosen. Serve immediately with warm maple syrup in little bowls on each plate.
Great Idea: For a cinnamon sugar topping, once the plain muffins are baked, brush tops lightly with melted butter, remove from pan and immediately roll in cinnamon sugar - these taste like churros!
