Fluffy, golden, and irresistibly charming, Mini German Pancakes are the perfect blend of light, airy texture and rich, buttery flavor, all baked to perfection in a muffin tin. With just a handful of pantry staples like eggs, milk, and flour, these bite-sized treats come together in under 30 minutes, making them an ideal choice for busy mornings or brunch gatherings. Their puffed-up shape creates delightful pockets that are perfect for holding a dusting of powdered sugar, fresh fruit, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Whether you're serving them as a fun twist on traditional pancakes or a crowd-pleasing dessert, these mini delights will quickly become a family favorite.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter.
In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, salt, and vanilla extract. Blend on high until the batter is smooth, about 20-30 seconds. Alternatively, whisk everything together in a large bowl until there are no lumps.
Cut the butter into small pieces and place one piece into each muffin cup of the prepared tin.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the butter is melted. Remove the tin from the oven.
Quickly pour the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about halfway full.
Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the pancakes are puffed up and golden brown around the edges.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the pancakes to cool for 1-2 minutes. They will deflate slightly as they cool, creating a perfect pocket for toppings.
Dust the pancakes with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit and maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy immediately!
