Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (can substitute with whole wheat flour)
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder (ensure it’s fresh)
- 2 tablespoons Sugar (can substitute with honey or agave syrup)
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt (adjust to taste)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk (or any dairy alternative)
- 1 large Egg (can use a flax egg for vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (can substitute with coconut oil)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well blended, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, beaten egg, and melted butter. Make sure the butter isn’t too hot, as it can cook the egg.
- Combine Batter: Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture using a spatula. Take care not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Prepare Cooking Pan: Preheat an aebleskiver pan or mini muffin tin over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancake Poppers: Pour the batter into the pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Serve: Carefully remove the poppers from the pan and serve them warm with maple syrup or other toppings of choice.
Notes
- Ensure baking powder is fresh for best rising results.
- Do not overmix batter to avoid tough pancakes.
- Butter or coconut oil can be used to suit dietary preferences.
- For a vegan version, substitute egg with a flax egg and use plant-based milk and oil.
- Use an aebleskiver pan or mini muffin tin for the traditional popper shape.
- Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
