This Pancake Muffins Recipe is one of my kid’s favorites! I love how easy this is to make and how perfect they are to rewarm for breakfast during the week. Perfect to make ahead of time for brunch or for kids to microwave for breakfast on a school day!

Mornings really can be a complete nightmare in my house!! Three kids running out the door, the dog is going crazy, and me trying to get work going equals complete and total chaos in the house. Pancakes are a favorite in my house, so being able to make up Pancake Muffins is perfect for the kids!!
I found Funfetti Mini Pancakes on Just Baked By Me on Pinterest and had to try it!! However, I have one kid, Kylie, who wanted Chocolate Chips
I love how easy the Silicone Muffin Pan is to use! To grease it so the muffins wouldn’t stick, I used a paper towel with some vegetable oil on it and rubbed it on the pan. Just push up from the bottom of the pan to pop the muffins out.
Plus no wrappers for me to get the kids to put in the trash. If you haven’t baked with one of these, you need to get one, I use mine constantly now!

How To make Pancake Muffins:
If you don’t have Buttermilk mix 1 cup of milk with 1 tbsp of vinegar. Allow the mixture to set, and then give it a small stir. You will need 2/3 cup for the pancake muffins.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Wipe the muffin pan with oil (either olive or vegetable oil), or use a nonstick spray if you prefer. I use oil as I don’t like the residue that nonstick spray leaves on pans.
Mix all the wet ingredients except for the maple syrup.
Mix in dry ingredients with a whisk or handheld mixer. I tend to use a handheld mixer more as it is efficient and easy.
Add in the maple syrup and mix well.
The next step can either be mix in your toppings or scoop the batter in as is, then top with topping. If adding toppings to the plain batter, you can mix with a knife or spoon.
Bake for about 8-12 minutes till they are done. (do a toothpick or fork test to make sure they are baked through)
Let cool for about five minutes in the pan.
Pop-out of the pan with a hand or spoon and set them on a baking rack to cool further.

Can you use regular milk? I know you gave recipe if you don’t have buttermilk, but I don’t use vinegar so I would have to buy some.
Jenny says
I would think it would still turn out okay. Did you try it out?
Samantha says
I use lemon juice and milk to make buttermilk. It works just as well.
Laurie says
Love this idea! Pinning so I can remember to make this !

Silicon is the way to go for baking! I’m a chemist so I am all about using silicon over metal for baked goods 😉 Yummy recipe too! Thanks for sharing this as well!
Danielle says
Those look great! I will have to make some for easy breakfasts for my daughter.
Stephanie R says
This is a really great idea! I needed some new ideas for breakfast this school year for my teens and these are a prefect breakfast, especially for my one who has braces and can’t hardly eat anything.
Jenny says
My daughter is in the same boat with braces!! The kids really love this recipe, we will be doing some with strawberries in them soon.
Hil says
My husband and daughter love pancakes and I am always pressed for time in the morning. What a great idea I cannot wait to try these!
Jenny says
Mornings are so crazy with kids!! Let me know what you think if you try them!
Julie says
I made these this morning and really loved them. I made this batch just plain, so that I could just try them. My next batch I will use blueberries, bacon, sausage or whatever else I can think of to try. Great alternative to regular ol’ pancakes. 🙂
Natasha Mairs says
really love these. I think I might try and make some with the kids this weekend
Audrey says
Sure beats standing over a griddle and making the pancakes individually.
Tara says
I love silicone as well! I just bought muffin silicone liners and love them! I didn’t even have to grease them.
Sandra Garth says
I’d love to freeze a batch of these!
Sharon says
Pancake muffins are total genius for crazy school mornings.
Annie says
True story: I love pancakes but couldn’t make them to save my life… I’m going to try these! I love that there is no frying pan involved 🙂
Susan says
Oh my gosh, I’m about to go get my morning cup of coffee and would love for you to deliver a dozen of these please!
