Description

Fluffy mini pancake stacks served with mixed berries, maple syrup, and garnished with fresh herbs—perfect as bite-sized treats for brunches or parties.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh mixed berries (raspberries, blackberries, blueberries)
  • Maple syrup, for drizzling
  • Fresh microgreens or mint, for garnish
  • Toothpicks or mini skewers for serving

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, mix buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed. Do not overmix.
  4. Heat a lightly buttered nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  5. Spoon out small rounds of batter (about 1 tablespoon each) and cook until bubbles form on the surface.
  6. Flip and cook the other side until golden. Repeat to make about 30 mini pancakes.
  7. Stack 2–3 mini pancakes and secure with a skewer or toothpick.
  8. Top each stack with a spoonful of mixed berries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
  9. Garnish with a sprig of microgreens or mint. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
  • Mini pancakes can be made ahead and reheated briefly before serving.
  • Try different fruits or toppings to suit the occasion.
