Description
These Pancake Mix Muffins are a fun twist on traditional muffins, using pancake mix as the base for a quick and easy treat. Customize each muffin with your favorite toppings for a delicious breakfast or snack.
Ingredients
For The Muffin Base
- 2 1/2 cups pancake mix (just add water style mix, such as Krusteaz buttermilk)
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup oil
For The Toppings
- 5 large strawberries
- ½ cup blueberries
- ½ medium banana
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil the muffin pan generously.
- Fill each of the muffin wells evenly with batter until about ¾ full. Using a ¼ cup measure and a spoon will help scoop evenly between the muffins.
- Add different flavors to each muffin and mix with a toothpick or spoon. Options include diced strawberries, blueberries, and a peanut butter, chocolate chip, and banana muffin flavor.
- Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and baked through the middle. Watch carefully not to overbake; the muffins should be light. Overbaking may dry them out. Cool and enjoy!
In a large mixing bowl, add pancake mix, eggs, sugar, milk, and oil. Combine well with a silicone spatula until the egg yolks fully mix into the batter and there is no more dry pancake mix in the bowl. Muffin batter should be thick.
Notes
- Experiment with various toppings like nuts, shredded coconut, or different fruits.
- To make the peanut butter, chocolate chip, and banana flavor, add a slice of banana, a few chocolate chips, and a dollop of peanut butter to the center of the batter in each muffin well.
