Blueberry Pancake Muffins with Pancake Mix
Muffins made with store-bought pancake mix for an easy healthy breakfast the whole family can enjoy together! Only 20 minutes to prepare and bake, and each bite is bursting with juicy blueberries and warm vanilla flavor. Blueberry Pancake Muffins are great to make ahead and freeze for a quick grab-and-go-breakfast or snack.
I’m always looking for simple, healthy breakfast ideas I can throw together on a whim. Blueberry Pancake Muffins with Pancake Mix could not be any easier and they are so yummy.
Just a few pantry ingredients and a box of your favorite store-brand pancake mix (I happen to love the krusteaz Protein Pancake Mix but any kind will do) and your favorite pancake mix-ins and that’s it!
Ingredients For Blueberry Pancake Muffins:
- Favorite store-bought pancake mix
- Sugar
- Water
- Egg
- Butter
- Vanilla extract
- Fresh or frozen blueberries
Pancake Mix-Ins:
Not everyone loves cooked blueberries (ahem-my daughter) but there are plenty of other pancake mix-ins to enjoy in Pancake Muffins. It’s also an easy way to customize the muffins to your liking. If you’re feeding multiple people this is a great way to let everyone pick their own mix-ins and toppings.
- Mini chocolate chips (1/2 cup)
- Chopped strawberries (1 cup)
- Crumbled cooked bacon (1/2 cup)
- Cinnamon sugar topping (sprinkle on top before baking)
- PBfit peanut butter powder (1 scopp, about 3 tablespoons)
- Grated apple (1 sweet red or pink apple (not green) grated and moisture squeezed out) Combine this with the cinnamon sugar topping, so yummy
How to make blueberry pancake muffins:
- Add pancake mix, sugar, water, egg, butter and vanilla extract to a large mixing bowl. Whisk until just combined.
- Fold in blueberries or favorite mix-ins.
- Fill prepared muffin cups 3/4 full an bake until puffed and golden.
Freezing Blueberry Pancake Muffins:
Another great thing about Pancake Muffins is they freeze well. I make a big batch over the weekend and whatever we have leftover, I freeze for busy weekday mornings. Muffins can be frozen for up to 4 months. When I get a craving for pancakes and I don’t have a lot of time, I pull a couple from the freezer and heat for 1-minute and 30 seconds or so until warmed through. They are still tender and fluffy as if I made them fresh. We just love them!
Enjoy these Blueberry Pancake Muffins plain, or dress them up with butter, maple syrup, or honey. I know you’ll love this easy breakfast treat!
