Mini Pancake Cereal (Printable)

Crispy, fluffy mini pancakes served like cereal with milk, syrup or fruit. Fun and delicious breakfast idea.

# What You'll Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

06 - 3/4 cup whole milk
07 - 1 large egg
08 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted plus extra for cooking
09 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ To Serve

10 - Maple syrup, honey, or milk
11 - Fresh berries or sliced banana (optional)

# Method:

01 - Whisk all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl until integrated.
02 - In a separate bowl, blend whole milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
03 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir just to combine; the batter should retain a few lumps.
04 - Transfer the batter into a piping bag, squeeze bottle, or use a teaspoon for portioning.
05 - Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium; lightly coat the surface with butter.
06 - Dispense small dots of batter, roughly 1/2 inch in diameter, onto the pan, spacing them apart.
07 - Allow pancakes to cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbles form and edges are set. Flip each with a spatula or chopstick and cook an additional 1 minute until golden.
08 - Continue with remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary between batches.
09 - Transfer mini pancakes to bowls. Serve immediately, adding milk for a cereal-style experience or drizzling with syrup and fresh fruit as desired.
