Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or low-fat)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (if using frozen, do not thaw)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus extra for greasing)
- Optional: Maple syrup or honey for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a mini muffin tin with some butter.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Stir well until the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until smooth and no lumps remain, about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the bites fluffy.
- Gently fold in the blueberries without crushing them to ensure you have whole fruits in each bite after baking.
- Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full to prevent overflow.
- Bake the pancake bites for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. They should spring back slightly when touched.
- Let the bites cool in the pan for a few minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely, about 5 minutes.
