Or course, you can add things chocolate chips or whipped cream: if you like dessert for breakfast! Let us know how you plan to serve these in the comments below. These cakes can be eaten with a fork, or eat them with your hands, dunking into a pool of maple syrup! It’s a natural recipe for kids, but we think they’re just as fun for adults too. (Both of us have a thing for miniaturized stuff!) Our mini pancakes recipe is a spin on our classic pancake recipe, which features both all-purpose and whole wheat flour for a developed, hearty flavor. Here are the ingredients you’ll need for mini pancakes:
Pantry: All-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, vanilla Dairy and eggs: Milk, eggs, butter (or oil) Fresh ingredients: Lemon juice (or vinegar)
We highly recommend getting ahold of a squeeze bottle for this recipe! You can also use them for sauces and garnishes, like making a nice drizzle of sour cream over enchiladas, for example.
Use a large griddle: non-stick is helpful. You’ll want a large surface since you’ll be cooking so many cakes at once. Use that squeeze bottle! It’s the easiest way to make dozens of mini pancakes at a time. If you don’t have one, consider making smaller batches since the process is slower and messier. Experiment to find the right heat level. Medium low heat is ideal, but it’s different on every stovetop. It should take a few minutes to get the pan up to heat. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect at first: keep adjusting as you cook. Remember that batches after the first batch will cook faster than the first since the pan is hotter. Don’t worry if the first batch of pancakes doesn’t work! Use it as a test for honing in your skills.
