Puffins

My little baker helping to add the chocolate chips.....

....or eat the chocolate chips!

Not sure if you've heard of "puffins" yet. They are basically a pancake baked as a muffin. Sometimes you just want a delicious muffin but don't have the mix to make it with...enter the Puffin. They are great for dunking in syrup like a pancake or just eating straight from the muffin tin! As you can see, this is also a kid approved meal. I would like to try them plain or with fruit in them instead of chocolate chips next time.

Ingredients:
Pancake mix
Water
Chocolate chips

Directions:
1. Make pancake mix according to package directions (mine just calls to add water). 

2. Put cupcake liners into a muffin tin and fill 3/4 full with pancake mix.

3. bake at 350 degrees for about 18 minutes or until done. If using a mini-muffin tin then I'd bake at 8-9 minutes or until done.
