Perfect for a brunch spread, snack, or change things up for a quick breakfast. We love pancakes but I hate standing there flipping, this is so quick and tastes like fluffy pancakes. My kiddo ate so many, she even loved the plain ones more than the ones with mini chocolate chips!
I added a big dose of vanilla, superb!!
I assume you grease the muffin tins?
You can grease it or use mini muffin liners.
Can you use almond flour to make these
I’m sure you can. I have not tried it, so not sure if you would need to edit anything else in the recipe. Let me know if you try it, and how it goes!
can you use store bought pancake mix?
Yep! That would work perfectly fine.
I am going to make these today and add frozen fruit. I have a ton of it and need quick. breakfasts for the kids.
Thats a great idea Aleya! I’ve put fruit in mine also and the kids love it! Hope you and your family enjoy!
Can you replace the dairy with almond milk?
Yes you should be able to add the same amount of almond milk to the recipe. I have not tried it with this none yet, hope you enjoy!!
How long could these last? Trying to fix as much as possible in advance because we have zero time in the mornings.
Totally understand that Aubrey! To freeze these once they are cooked you want to place them on a baking sheet so they are not touching each other and freeze them. Once frozen you can toss them in a big freezer bag but this way they don’t all freeze together and you can pull out 1-2 at a time. Since this recipe has dairy in it I would say 6-9 months (the regular time frame for freezing daily). You can pop out a few at a time and toss them in the microwave or oven until thawed! Hope you enjoy them =)
Hi, I was wondering if I could use whole wheat flour, and possibly add some flaxseed meal into these. Do you think they would still cook up properly?
I’m sure the whole wheat would be a fine sub I’ve never tried it with flaxseed but with a small amount it should work. Let me know how they turn out!
I bet my teen would love making these on the weekends. I can’t wait to show them to her.
