BLUEBERRY PANCAKE BITES With a Creamy Lemon Butter Dip

These bite-sized pancakes are fun to make and to eat. The Creamy Lemon Butter Dip is delicious.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 24 pancake bites 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large free-range egg
  • 2/3 cup of milk
  • ¼ cup butter, melted
  • 2 TBS corn syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup dried blueberries

For the Creamy Lemon Butter Dip:

  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ (12 ounce) can evaporated milk (6 fluid ounces)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 TBS fresh lemon juice
  • 12 tsp lemon zest
  • Few drops yellow food coloring (optional)
  • Pinch salt

Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 350*F.  Spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin well with cooking spray. Set aside.

    Whisk together the milk, butter, egg, corn syrup and vanilla in a bowl. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Stir in the dried blueberries. Add the wet ingredients all at once and mix to just combine.  Divide the batter amongst the prepared muffin cups.

    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center of one comes out clean and they are well risen. Keep warm.

    For the dip, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.  Add the sugar and evaporated milk.  Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.  Let cook for 4 to 5 minutes, continuing to stir.  Remove from the heat and add the lemon zest. Whisk in the lemon juice and food coloring if using.  Let sit for a few minutes before using it as it will be quite hot.  It should thicken up a bit as it cools.

    Serve the pancake bites, divided onto individual plates with a small container of the lemon sauce for dipping.

    Note – you can make the Lemon Butter Dip ahead of time if you wish. Gently reheat it until it is warm in either the microwave or a small saucepan.
