Make some super easy Pancake Bites – a fun Valentine’s breakfast treat!
Super Easy Pancake Bites
How about fun bite-sized pancakes for the kiddos on Valentine’s morning? Full-sized sweethearts would love these too! So simple to make, they barely require a recipe. Make pancake batter, mix in fruit preserves, fresh fruit or mini chocolate chips, pour into a mini muffin pan and bake. 15 minutes later (including prep and bake time) you have lovin from the oven. Drizzle with maple syrup or pop in your mouth for a breakfast on the run.
My HyVee Balance magazine was the source for this little gem. Yes it’s true, I still scavenge out some great recipes from old school magazines. In fact, I have really good luck with new recipes from grocery store magazines. I just love getting new recipe inspiration, no matter what the source.
