Description

Baked in a mini muffin tin, these pancake bites combine creamy yogurt tang, vibrant lemon notes, and bursts of juicy blueberry in every fluffy mouthful.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a mini muffin pan with melted butter or nonstick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the Greek yogurt, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in the lemon zest and blueberries, being careful not to overmix the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the pancake bites to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can use frozen blueberries; add them straight from the freezer to prevent color bleeding.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancake bites fluffy and tender.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in a toaster oven or microwave for a quick breakfast treat.
