How to Make Mini Pancakes
Step 1: Preheat a non-stick pancake griddle, or non-stick skillet or pan to 300 degrees Fahrenheit or medium heat.
Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3: Next, add the egg, buttermilk, and melted butter into the dry ingredients. Stir together until there are no clumps in the batter.
Step 4: Using a pancake batter dispenser, or any other tool you prefer, pour or spoon the batter onto your preheated griddle. Roughly 1 ½ – 2 Tablespoons of batter for each mini pancake. Once you see bubbles on the surface of the pancake batter it’s time to flip.
Step 5: Cook the other side until it’s a light golden brown.
Step 6: Finally serve and enjoy!

FAQs
If you pour from one spot onto your griddle you should be able to get pretty round pancakes, however if you are looking to be more precise you can use this pancake dispenser.
I think buttermilk is the best option for the overall taste of this recipe, however if you are in a pinch, you can use whole milk, or even almond milk if you are on a dairy-free diet.

You can store these pancakes in airtight containers in your fridge for up to 2-3 days. If you want to freeze them, you can do so for up to 1 month.
