Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin pan with cooking spray or butter.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the chopped cooked bacon.
5. Spoon the pancake batter into the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
6. Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Allow the Maple Bacon Pancake Bites to cool slightly before removing them from the pan.
8. Drizzle the warm pancake bites with additional maple syrup before serving.
Notes
To ensure your Maple Bacon Pancake Bites turn out perfectly, be mindful not to overmix the batter and avoid overfilling the muffin cups.
For the best texture, do not pack the batter too tightly into the muffin cups and avoid opening the oven door frequently.
Opt for thick-cut or applewood-smoked bacon for maximum flavor and texture.
