Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1/4 cup jelly or jam of choice
- Butter for cooking
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then add milk and peanut butter. Whisk until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay.
- Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter.
- Using a small ladle or tablespoon, drop small amounts of batter onto the heated surface to create silver dollar-sized pancakes, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
- Cook the pancakes for approximately 2-3 minutes or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look dry.
- Carefully flip each pancake and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a serving platter and repeat the process with remaining batter.
- Warm the jelly or jam slightly to make it more spreadable.
- Arrange the silver dollar pancakes on a board, providing small dishes of jelly/jam for dipping or spreading.
- Serve warm and enjoy the playful PBJ-inspired pancake board!
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients for smoother batter mixing
- Don't overmix the pancake batter - lumps are your friend for fluffy texture
- Use a non-stick griddle or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet for even cooking
- Keep pancakes warm in a low-temperature oven (200°F) while cooking remaining batches
- Experiment with different jellies and jams for variety
- For extra richness, try adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup
- Use a squeeze bottle or small ladle for perfectly uniform mini pancakes
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for lighter pancakes
