Ingredients

• 3 cups of Hungry Jack Pancake/Waffle mix
• 2-½ cups Water
• Blueberries (optional)
• Warm Syrup, For Serving

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. (**See note below.)

Combine dry ingredients and wet ingredients. If batter is too thick, stir in a little water.

Spray a mini-muffin pan generously with baking spray. Fill cups 2/3 full. If using blueberries, drop 2 to 3 blueberries into each cup.

Bake for 8 to 9 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Let sit in the pan for 1 to 2 minutes, then turn them out of the pan. (Use a small knife if any are stubborn.)

Serve warm with warm syrup!

**425 will result in crisper edges. For a softer muffin, bake at 400 for 11 minutes.
