Kid Friendly Party Food

Pancake Muffins. Yes, two breakfast foods in one. Fluffy, golden brown, and oh so delicious.

These muffins are great for kids; they can just dip the muffins into the maple syrup but they're also great for parties. You and your friends/family can gather around the table and just eat and dip them.

They're very versatile too. You can add chocolate chips, blueberries, nuts, etc. to the batter. You can cut out the middle and fill it with your favorite fruit compost or other favorite filling. I added raspberry jam and some maple syrup.

All you need to do is make your favorite pancake recipe and fill a muffin tray, either 24 or 12 muffin tray. The recipe I used was a simple and classic. Actually the best recipe I've used for pancakes. The recipe calls for 1/2 to 3/4 cups of milk. I used both amounts, because I found the batter to be dry; it worked out beautifully.

After you make the pancake batter, butter your muffin tray and pop them in the oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. But remember I used a 12 muffin tray, so adjust the time if you use a 24 muffin tray. After they're golden brown, check if they're done by poking a toothpick or knife in the middle. If it comes out clean, you're good to go. Take them out, let them cool, and put them on a plate. Then you can jazz them up however you want. Again, you can use fruit compost, other type of filling, out just good ol' maple syrup.

That's it! That's how simple it is to make these delicious muffins. Enjoy!
