Easy Mini Pancakes

My toddler loves mini pancakes for breakfast, and these come out fluffy and delicious! They’re so easy to whip up that you won’t feel the need to buy store bought. They’re toddler and kid friendly!

Mini pancakes have become a staple for breakfast in our house, and making them from scratch couldn’t be any easier with this recipe. This recipe also plays a little on the healthier side by using maple syrup in place of sugar and uses a lower amount of butter. If you’re looking for an even healthier mini pancake recipe, try these Mini Pear Pancakes or my Mini Spinach Pancakes.

I make these on Sunday so I have them on hand throughout the week. Sometimes I will make a couple batches and freeze them for easy breakfasts! My daughter loves to eat these with the classic maple syrup, but they’re really good with berries and peanut butter, too. I hope you love this recipe as much as my family and I do!

Ingredients

All Purpose Flour – if you’re looking for an even healthier pancake, you can use Whole Wheat Flour in place of All Purpose

Baking Powder – to help the pancakes rise

Salt – helps balance the flavors

Milk of Your Choice – I have used whole milk and oat milk in these

Maple Syrup – adds sweetness – make sure it’s 100% maple syrup – not pancake syrup

Whole Egg

Butter – you can also use coconut oil in place of the butter

For Littles

I make these for my almost 3-year-old toddler all the time! She loves pancakes and I feel good giving these to her because I am making them from scratch. They’re not full of sugar like the mini pancakes that you buy from the store. You can even use whole wheat flour in place of all purpose for an even healthier option! You can serve these to your littles 12 months +.

How To

Mix the dry ingredients in a big bowl and set aside. Then mix together your wet ingredients in a separate bowl and then pour the wet mixture into the dry. Mix gently

Spoon tablespoons of the batter onto a skillet and cook until lightly brown on both sides

Enjoy!
