Notes
- Grease well: Make sure you grease your non-stick muffin pans well. Use butter or cooking spray to ensure that the muffin batter doesn’t stick to the sides, and comes off easily.
- Choose sweet: Since we’re not using any sugar here to sweeten the actual pancake mix, you’ll want to choose toppings and mix-ins that have a bit of sweetness to them.
- Use a blender: To make things quicker, you can also choose to make the pancake mixture in a blender. Remember to avoid overmixing the batter though.
- Top right: Make sure you wait for a few minutes and allow the muffins to deflate and cool down before you top them with the toppings of your choice. They should ideally be hot, but not warm when you’re adding the toppings.
