Puffcakes


I'm gonna have to go ahead and name these puffcakes.  Although puffins is cute too.
Mini Maple Chocolate Chip Pancake Muffins
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2/3 cup buttermilk
1 egg
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a medium bowl. Sift together with a wire whisk.
  • In another bowl, stir buttermilk, egg, maple syrup and melted butter until just combined.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Spoon into muffin tins, either minis or regular - no need to spray them if they're nonstick.  The butter in the batter will keep them stick free.  We did spray ours and they ended up a little bit greasy.
  • Bake for 8-9 minutes for mini muffin pan, or 10-12 minutes for regular muffin pan.
  • Makes 24 minis or 9 regulars sized muffins.
Let cool slightly and remove from the pan. You may need to use a toothpick around the edges to separate the pancake muffins from the pan.
Serve immediately with more maple syrup for dunking.

thanks for commenting on my cookie post! definitely let me know how they turn out for you. You might want to start with the original amount of butter - 3/4 cup - I did, but just found the dough a little too dry because of the evaporation from browning, so I added a couple more tablespoons. These puffcakes look amazing! I love maple and chocolate chips muffins, putting the two together sounds devine! and the same is adorable.

Thanks! Mine weren't as adorbs as Bakerella's because I used a regular sized muffin tin instead of a mini, but then I didn't feel so bad about having three, even if they were a big three. Six or seven just sounds so much worse. . .
