2 ½ cups flour
2 tablespoons granular sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 ½ cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
2 large eggs room temperature
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Get out and measure your ingredients.

Whisk both bowls together.

Pancake Muffins

Fill baking cups just over ⅔ of the way full. Place in air fryer basket in batches (I did 4 at a time).
Cook for 7-8 minutes or until browned on top.
Remove your pancake muffins from the air fryer.
Place your air fryer pancake muffins on a plate and top with your favorite toppings.
Serve and Enjoy every bite.

Flat Pancakes

Prepare your 5 to 7 inch cake cake pan with cooking spray.
Add spoonful's of batter to your prepared cake pan until batter is half way full.
Place inside your air fryer.
Set your air fryer temperature to 325 degrees and preheat your air fryer.
Set your timer for 5 to 6 minutes, with 5 inch pan, around 8 minutes for each 6 inch pan, or if using a 7 inch cake pan set tier for 10 minutes, removing after each is cooked.
Place on serving plate and serve or set aside.
Make a stack, if desired.
Add berries, bananas, chocolate chips, butter, peanut butter, nutella or powdered sugar.
Add maple syrup.
OR Serve with our homemade pecan butter and butter pecan syrup.
Enjoy every bite!

Notes

Do not overcrowd your air fryer. Your pancakes will not cook well if they are overcrowded. No more than four muffins per batch.
Make sure that your ingredients are room temperature before starting to make your pancakes.
Cook times can vary based on the brands of air fryers. Your pancake muffins may need a little more cooking time or a little less. Keep an eye on your pancake muffins for the last two or three minutes of your cook time.
