If you love breakfast food, these are the mini muffins for you. Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes have all the flavours of maple, buttermilk pancakes in these sweet, mini bites.

Waking up to the smell of pancakes baking is seriously a dream of mine. Maybe my family is bringing me breakfast in bed, or they simply tell me that it’s almost ready to come off the stove. Either way, there’s nothing more comforting than the smell of breakfast food in the morning.

Who am I kidding? Breakfast food smells amazing any time of the day. Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes is a wonderfully tasty breakfast treat that is so perfect for mealtime or snack time.

The Easiest Pancake Recipe

There’s something so perfect about pancakes. They’re light, fluffy and completely delicious, but they can be a little high maintenance. You need to watch them, make sure they’re cooking evenly, flip them, and keep one batch warm while the next is cooking.

With Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes, you have all the delicious flavour of pancakes. Plus, they perfectly bake all at the same time, so there’s no flipping or waiting. Just mix the ingredients, pour it into a mini muffin pan, and wait for your muffin treats to bake up. Basically, these are the perfect, quick and simple pancake meal.

Healthy Breakfast Bites

When I first whipped up these Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes, my family just couldn’t get enough of them. A batch of them seemed to disappear before my eyes. And I think I know why.

Biting into these Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes is like enjoying a perfect mouthful of fluffy pancakes. The light maple flavour is heightened by the cinnamon and vanilla extract.

I love food that feels like an indulgence, but it’s a little more guilt-free than you’d ever imagine. Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes may have a rich, buttermilk flavour, but they are actually low fat.

If you’re looking for something comforting and tasty, these are the muffin treats for you.  Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, dinner or something in between, you can enjoy Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes any time of the day.

How to Make Mini Muffin Maple Pancakes

If you’ve ever made muffins (of any size), that’s how easy these pancakes are to make. Simply combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a small mixing bowl. Then, combine everything that makes these muffins oh so tasty – yogurt, milk, maple syrup, apple sauce, eggs, and vanilla – in another bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and you are ready to add your pancake mix to mini muffins tins.

After eight minutes in the oven, your Maple Mini Muffin Pancakes are ready!! What makes these pancakes extra special is that there is maple syrup on the inside and you can dip (or dunk) them in some extra syrup for the outside.

Now, I’m not talking about fake syrup. I’m talking about the real, pure maple syrup, the one that is tapped straight from the sap of maple trees. It’s collected every year in early spring, making it perfect for this time of year. Happy Spring!!

If you’ve never had real maple syrup, you have to try it. It tastes a million times better than the artificial version. Real maple syrup is what makes Maple Mini Muffin Pancakes a perfect breakfast treat any time of the day.
