Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (5 oz) all-purpose flour (white or wheat)
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Let a mini muffin pan get hot in the oven for 10 minutes while you're making the batter.
  • Add the eggs, milk and vanilla in a blender and blend on low speed until smooth, about 10-20 seconds.
  • Add the flour and salt and blend until just combined.
  • Remove hot pan from the oven and spray each cup thoroughly with cooking spray.
  • Carefully pour batter into cups, about half full.
  • Bake immediately for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Dump them out onto a clean kitchen towel while still warm and keep covered until you're ready to serve.
  • Top with desired toppings.

Notes

If you manage to have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge and pop them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds at a time to reheat.
