Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Mix-Ins:

  • 1/2 cup blueberries, chocolate chips, or diced strawberries
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon (for a savory twist)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk, egg, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Add Mix-Ins: Fold in any optional mix-ins, like blueberries, chocolate chips, strawberries, or bacon.
  6. Fill the Muffin Tin: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.
  7. Bake: Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Serve: Let the muffins cool slightly, then serve warm with maple syrup for dipping, if desired.

These Pancake Muffins make a deliciously easy breakfast that’s perfect for on-the-go mornings or weekend brunches. The flavors of pancakes in muffin form will satisfy any breakfast craving with a simple, fun twist!
