Pancake Mix Donuts

I’ve done something a little wacko. And by wacko I mean totally awesome.
I think it’s safe to say that this household loves doughnuts.
I also think it’s safe to say that everyone in the world loves doughnuts. Umm…who doesn’t love doughnuts? NO ONE.
See? I speak the truth.
I love real fried doughnuts a whooooooole lot… so much so that I hardly every buy them because I know I will eat them ALL.
Again, I speak the truth.
Well my lovelies, I’ve figured out a way to trick my brain into thinking that these pancakes are doughnuts because….they look just like doughnuts! What a concept! Take regular old pancake batter, stir in some chocolate chips, spoon into a mini doughnut pan and bake! 4 minutes in the oven and you’ve got a seriously fun breakfast that kiddies will just eat up….literally.
If you don’t have a mini doughnut pan, a mini muffin tin will work just fine too. Dip these babies into some syrup and that’s breakfast! Or make them ahead, freeze and microwave as needed throughout the week. My daughter LOVED these and my husband was bummed he left for work early.
Moral of the story: it pays to be late for work when your wife is a food blogger. Also, you will be the coolest Mom on the block if you make these. At least that’s what I told myself last Thursday.
Enjoy 🙂

Pancake Mix Donuts
These Pancake Mix Donuts are a sweet little handheld pancake in a doughnut waiting to be dipped in syrup! Such a good breakfast or dessert.

Love these, fun delicious kids breakfast
I just wanted to let you know that I made these vegan and they were amazing! Thanks for the recipe!
Can you actually use all purpose flour instead of self rising flour? Thanks
You’d have to add in your own leavenings if you use all purpose.
I did not know that! That is good to know! Thank you! I can’t wait to try these! They look so good! 🙂
I have never seen vinegar in a pancake recipe before and thought it was interesting. Was wondering if you could tell me what the purpose of it is?
These look really good!! Thanks!
If you mix vinegar with milk, it becomes a substitution for buttermilk! That’s why I add it.
This is the CUTEST idea ever. Makes me feel like a kid again just looking at the pictures.
Seriously?
Tiny, fun, cute, yummy finger food, I love’em.
these are adorable!

Made these for my kiddos this morning and when asked if they liked them, my oldest said “Like them?! I don’t just like them. I LOVE them!!”
Thanks for sharing!!
Are those ever cute!!! Kids would LOVE those!
I’m in love with this idea! So cute and fun and creative!!
This is definitely a breakfast item I can get on board with! I seriously wish I could have this every morning.

Your pictures are awesome, and the doughnuts are just so cute. Two or three maybe five mini doughnuts won’t do it for me! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Super cute! I did that a while ago with my mini muffin pan. So much easier than standing and flipping 🙂 I didn’t even know those mini doughnut pans existed…

While I’m not a huge doughnut fan (gasp) I love these! I would be just as excited about them as my kids, and I could definitely use help in the best-mom-on-the-block department 🙂
Adorable! I do have a mini donut pan but it must be a little different shape than yours b/c mine come out more domed than yours do; it’s a Wilton pan. These would make my little girl so happy!
gorgeous photos! these looks delicious and what a genius idea!
