Ingredients

Baked Pancake Breakfast Bites

1 1/2 cups

all-purpose flour

1/3 cup

granulated sugar

1 1/2 tsp

baking powder

1/2 tsp

baking soda

1/2 tsp

ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp

salt

1 cup

buttermilk

2 large

eggs

3 tbsp

Mirage Margarine, melted & slightly cooled

2 tsp

pure vanilla extract

Suggested Add-Ins

sprinkles

chocolate chips

raspberries

banana chunks

Directions

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease two mini muffin tins and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

In a measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted Mirage Margarine and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until the dry ingredients are just moistened. There should be a few lumps scattered throughout the batter. Do not over mix or the pancakes will become tough.

Using a spoon, fill two thirds of each mini muffin with the batter. Sprinkle each tin well with your choice of toppings: coloured sprinkles, chocolate chips, berries, and/or fruit. Place the filled tins into the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the bites have a rounded top and are lightly golden in colour.

Baker’s Notes:

If buttermilk is unavailable, stir in a tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar into 1 cup of milk. Let stand for 5 minutes, and use as directed in the recipe.
When using fruits or berries as toppings for your pancake bites, make sure that they are sliced small enough to into the tin.
