How to Make Mini Pancake Pops: The Ultimate Party Snack Hack

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (substitute with almond or oat flour for a healthier option)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (or natural sweetener like honey)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ cup milk (use plant-based milk for a vegan version)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter or oil for greasing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually combine wet and dry ingredients until smooth.
  2. Transfer to a Piping Bag: Pour the batter into a squeeze bottle or piping bag for precise control.
  3. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pipe small dots of batter onto the pan, about the size of a nickel.
  4. Flip and Finish: Once bubbles form on the surface, flip each pancake and cook for another 30 seconds until golden brown.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer pancakes to a bowl and top with syrup, fruit, or your favorite add-ins.

Notes

  • For an extra crispy texture, toast the mini pancakes in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes.
  • Use a griddle or multiple pans to cook large batches efficiently.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
