Fluffy, bite-sized, and oh-so-fun—mini pancakes are the ultimate breakfast treat for all ages. Whether you’re hosting brunch or meal prepping for busy mornings, these little delights will bring smiles to your table. Discover seven game-changing tips to make your mini pancakes extra special!
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for the pan)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional toppings: maple syrup, fruit, chocolate chips, yogurt
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter.
Use a teaspoon or squeeze bottle to drop small rounds of batter onto the pan.
Cook for 1–2 minutes until bubbles form and edges are set. Flip and cook for another 1 minute.
Remove and serve warm with toppings of your choice.
Notes
Make a big batch and freeze extras for busy mornings—just reheat in a toaster or microwave.
Add mini chocolate chips or blueberries for a fun twist.
For even cooking, use a squeeze bottle to portion batter.
Great for pancake skewers or pancake cereal!
