Ingredients
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the mini muffins.
- Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, milk, egg, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about halfway to allow room for the muffins to rise without overflowing.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the muffins are fully cooked.
- Cool and Serve: Let the mini muffins cool slightly in the tin before removing and serving to avoid burning and to help them set perfectly.
Notes
- Using a mini muffin tin keeps the portions bite-sized and perfect for quick snacks.

- Check muffins a few minutes before the minimum baking time as ovens can vary.
- For added flavor, consider mixing in blueberries or chocolate chips.
