Pancake Bites
Delicious and easy pancake bites made in a mini muffin pan. Make them ahead and freeze for a quick and simple low carb breakfast.
Servings: 24 pancake bites
Ingredients
For The Pancake Bites
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk or regular milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar or use monkfruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1¾ cups almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 3 large eggs
For The Toppings
- ⅓ cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Grease two (12-cup) mini muffin pans with cooking spray and set aside. If you have a 24-cup mini muffin pan, use that.
- Blend. In a blender, combine the melted butter, milk, sugar/sweetener, vanilla, almond flour, baking soda, and salt; pulse several times until well blended. Add the eggs and process for 1 minute, or until batter is thoroughly incorporated.
- Bake. Pour the batter into the muffin pan. Add blueberries or chocolate chips on top of the batter. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the pancake bites comes out clean.
- Let them cool. Remove from the oven and let the pancake bites cool for 5 minutes in the muffin tin, then invert them onto a wire rack to continue to cool. If they are sticking to the pan, run a butter knife along the outer edges of the muffins to loosen them.
Notes
- Blend the Batter: For a smooth, mess-free batter, use a blender.
- Toppings: Try various toppings like nuts, seeds, or cinnamon.
- Sweeteners: Swap the sugar with any sweetener you like.
- Place completely cooled pancake bites on a baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours, or until frozen. Take them out of the freezer and put them in a ziploc freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.
- When ready to use, remove as many as you want from the freezer bag and reheat in the microwave or in the oven.
- You can also refrigerate the pancake bites; store them in airtight containers and keep them in the fridge for up to 4 days.
