NomEatNom - Mini-German Pancakes

I am so, so excited about this post!! You see, I love mini-foods to begin with – mainly because they are so stinkin’ cute – so when I saw a tutorial on Pinterest for mini German pancakes, I knew I had to try them!!

Not only are these scrumptious, little golden gems super easy to make, but they are equally precious and incredibly delicious!! Plus, the batter is a cinch to throw together in the blender — which also makes it a cinch to clean up, too!

So, what are you waiting for?? Simply fill these beauties with your favorite flavors, and you’ll have a breakfast or brunch that is sure to impress! 🙂

Nom away!

Mini-German Pancakes

By tonya@nomeatnom.com, April 22, 2013

Ingredients:

Milk - 1 cup
Flour (whole wheat pastry) - 1 cup
Eggs - 6
Vanilla extract (pure) - 2 tsp.
Orange zest (dried) - 1 tsp.
Salt (pure) - pinch or two
Coconut oil (virgin) - 1/4 cup, melted

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Blend the first six ingredients together in a blender (I used my beloved Vitamix). Be sure to check that any clumps of flour are well-blended.

Blend in the oil a little at a time in order to temper the eggs.

Grease muffin tins well, and distribute the batter evenly between 18 muffins cups. (I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup and filled it almost full for each muffin cup.)

Bake for 15 minutes, or until puffy and golden on top.

Remove the tins from the oven. You'll notice the pancakes deflate slightly in just a few seconds -- leaving gorgeous, golden little bowls!

Serve with your favorite toppings. We enjoyed ours with warm, organic berries, maple syrup, and a dollop of Greek yogurt!
