Skip all the time and work involved in pancakes and try these super-easy blueberry pancake muffins! Drizzled with a warm, citrus-y maple syrup, you’ll be in pancake heaven!
On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your Tuesday morning view right now? I’m gonna go out on a limb and give it a 15.5. And I’m not pancake biased in the least bit, either. 😉
FRIENDS. We’ve got lots of things to talk about today. Mostly revolving around the fact that we’ve got pancake muffin in.da.house.
So it’s definitely no secret that I have a ridiculous thing for pancakes. The last I checked, the pancake recipe count around here rounded up to 20-ish. Mercy…who’s the pancake freak around here anyway??
Now let’s be brutally honest here, friends. We all have that lazy side of us in the mornings that just does not want to slave over breakfast. I myself will slave over the coffee until it’s front of me but that’s about it.
Pancakes are just one of those things that require your full and undivided attention, from start to finish. So I had an idea. More than likely I’m not the first person to have this brilliant stroke of genius, but listen to my words anyway.
Pancakes in the form of muffins. The easiest and my favorite blueberry pancake batter simply thrown into muffin pans, baked, and just like that breakfast is SERVED.
With a waterfall of glorious warm citrus-y maple syrup because I said so. 😉
Gosh, I love this syrup so much. It completes all things.
Break open those warm berry-loaded pancake babies and go nuts with the syrup downpours. You only live once.
No exaggeration at all, friends. If you close your eyes you’ll think you’re eating a big ‘ol blueberry pancake. Pancake mind games!!
Shall we have a moment of silence for the single greatest pancake idea in the universe? I’m currently silent for like the first time ever and it’s probably due to the fact that my mouth is full. Legit-ly full of these pancake dreams. ↑
Pancake muffins for breakfast, lunch, and dinner today? Heck to the biggest YES.
We need to treat ourselves anyway. It’s only Tuesday.
