Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 0.75 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 cups Fresh fruit (e.g., berries, bananas)
- 0.25 cups Maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter.
In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Blend on high until the batter is smooth, about 20-30 seconds. Alternatively, whisk everything together in a large bowl until there are no lumps.
Cut the butter into small pieces and place one piece into each muffin cup of the prepared tin.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the butter is melted. Remove the tin from the oven.
Quickly pour the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about halfway full.
Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the pancakes are puffed up and golden brown around the edges.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the pancakes to cool for 1-2 minutes. They will deflate slightly as they cool, creating a perfect pocket for toppings.
Dust the pancakes with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit and maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy immediately!
