mini pancake donuts {fun breakfast idea}

We've had our mini donut maker for a couple of years and my kids dear making beautiful trivial block mix donuts. A couple of weblog readers commented on that post that they had tried pancake batter in the donut maker, and nosotros but had to see how information technology turned out.

The verdict? A success! They taste simply like a soft pancake, but in donut shape.

And apparently that makes them way more fun to eat.

I think it's the whole dunking in syrup part my kids actually enjoy. Much more fun that using a fork, right?

My kids eat them straight out of the donut maker with syrup…

…while I adopt them covered with whipped foam, bananas, and berries. And a little syrup for adept measure. Sure, non the healthiest breakfast I've ever eaten, but for an occasional treat it's pretty darn fun. And pancake donuts are actually healthier than traditional donuts considering they're broiled instead of fried and have less saccharide, too.

Nosotros've even tried them using a actually healthy whole wheat pancake mix (Kodiak Cakes from Costco – nosotros love them!) and they worked great.

Here's a video you lot can watch that shows how simple these are to make:

And hither are the details:

• Mix pancake batter as directed on the box, using just a smidge less water than called for. Let it sit for a few minutes to thicken. If information technology'southward quite runny, stir in a footling more pancake mix.
• Plug in the donut maker and let it warm up. When it's ready, open it upwardly and requite it a quick spritz of nonstick spray.
• Spoon the pancake batter into a ziplock bag and cutting off one corner. "Pipage" the batter out of the handbag, filling the lesser wells of the donut maker.
• Close and let cook for three full minutes. Sometimes the "done" light comes on prior to this, only I institute they ordinarily need iii full minutes. If they stick when you try to remove them, they probably demand a few seconds longer.
• Use the included tool (or a fork) to remove the donuts, then repeat with another batch until all your batter is cooked. I found I but needed to add together more than nonstick spray nigh every 3 batches.
• 1 cup of mix fabricated virtually 7-8 donuts. They're small, only they end up slightly denser than a normal pancake so they're a chip more than filling.
