Maple Bacon Pancake Bites (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 2 tablespoons brown sugar
03 - 1 tablespoon baking powder
04 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

→ Wet Ingredients

05 - 1 cup milk
06 - 1 large egg
07 - 2 tablespoons melted butter
08 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Extras

09 - 1 cup cooked and crumbled maple-flavored bacon
10 - Maple syrup for drizzling
11 - Cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
03 - In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
04 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
05 - Gently fold in the crumbled maple bacon, ensuring it is evenly distributed within the batter.
06 - Spoon the pancake batter into each muffin cup, filling them about 2/3 full to allow for rising.
07 - Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
08 - Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Carefully pop the pancake bites out of the muffin tin.
09 - Serve warm, drizzled with pure maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness.
