Notes
Nutrition is calculated without additional powdered sugar and maple syrup.
Use a mini muffin pan: It helps achieve the perfect bite-size shape.
Don’t overmix the batter: Mix just until combined to keep the pancake bites fluffy.
Preheat the oven: Make sure your oven is fully preheated to 400°F before baking.
Spray the pan well: Use cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Check for doneness: Use a toothpick to check if the bites are done; it should come out clean.
Serve warm: These are best enjoyed warm with a side of maple syrup for dipping.
