Pancake mix from scratch muffins

  1. Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF. Prepare the muffin pan, either by spraying with nonstick baking spray or lining with cases.
    • A mini muffin pan is best for this mixture, allowing you to dip them in maple syrup for eating.

  3. In another bowl, add the buttermilk, egg and butter or oil. Stir to combine.
  4. Transfer the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir while adding it. Leave to sit for 3 minutes.
  5. Using a spoon or scoop, place batter into the muffin pan holes. Fill about half way for each muffin.
  6. Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes. The muffins are done when a toothpick inserted into the muffin comes out clean.
  7. Serve. Use warmed maple syrup to dip the muffins into.
