When pancake gets a muffin makeover. You get to enjoy pancakes without spending much time cooking it, just make the batter and bake them in a muffin pan. It takes less than 10 minutes to bake the perfect pancake muffins…
I make breakfast from scratch only on weekends, and I love to make pancakes, waffles, potato stuffed omelete, crepes etc. Each time I make pancakes, I try to add different ingredients to the batter: oats, apples, pumpkin puree, dates etc. Making the pancake batter is a breeze, however cooking the pancakes does involve some work. That’s one of the reasons why I shy away from making pancakes on week days.
Now, that I have found a way to transform pancakes into muffins I’ve started enjoying pancakes for breakfast on week days as well. This is an awesome idea as we only have to spend 5 minutes making the batter and then let it bake in the oven for less than 10 minutes. You could even make the pancake muffins the previous day and refrigerate them, in the morning you just need to microwave the muffins and enjoy with maple syrup.
