Thanks for joining Sarah and me for Meatless Monday today. We had a rare weekend morning we all slept in a bit and then had the chance to have breakfast together. Whenever that happens, I like to make something special for us to enjoy together. Since we all have slightly different likes, these Build Your Own Pancake Muffins are perfect for us. I’ve been making these for a while and realized that I had not yet shared the recipe with you.
Build Your Own Pancake Muffins
These Build Your Own Pancake Muffins could not be easier and are perfect for holiday guests. Start with your favorite pancake mix. I have been using Kodiak Cakes for years and we always have them in the pantry. From there, everyone can add whatever fruits, nuts or even a savory protein into their muffins. Pop them in the oven and about 18 min later you can enjoy them with syrup or butter or jelly.
Some of our favorite flavor mix ins for these Build Your Own Pancake Muffins are:
-Peanut butter and banana
-Peanut butter and walnuts
-Banana and walnuts
-Strawberry and chocolate chip
-Strawberry
-Peanut butter and chocolate chip
-Meatless bacon or sausage
-Blueberry and banana
The possibilities are endless! The beauty of these little babies is that everyone can create their own mix ins before baking and then they are all made together in one muffin pan. I used a pretty pan here but they definitely work best in a silicone muffin pan so they pop right out. You can find one here. (Amazon affiliate)
I like to dip my Build Your Own Pancake Muffins in a little pure maple syrup but they would also be tasty with jelly or a little butter. Mix it up with different flavor combinations and see what your family and friends prefer. Perfect for the Holiday Season when everyone is home and hungry.

What are you making your Holiday Guests for breakfast? Ever stuff your pancakes with yummy eats?
What a great idea! This looks like it would be tons of fun to do with the kids.
It’s great because everyone can decide what they would like in their muffins so they are sure to eat them
This is pure genius! I make muffins (and pancakes) frequently, but everyone seems to want “this” or “not that” in theirs. I’d never thought of just mixing in the special add-ins to the individual muffins. Thanks!
Thanks! We have picky eaters over here too so it’s a great way to please everyone
Of course there are add ins to my pancakes! I love pancakes. Although I prefer making my own instead of using a mix — most mixes have way more sugar than I need, even the healthy ones.
It helps when you’re just making them for yourself. 🙂
Yup definitely helps a lot!
Those look delicious! I love pancakes but making them as a muffin would keep the portion size in check!
It certainly helps!
What a cute and yummy idea! These would go over well in my house on Christmas morning!
I bet they would!
I LOVE pancake and muffins! What a great combo
me too and thanks!
What a fun idea! Believe it or not I’ve never made my own muffins. 😳 I know! I better get me one of those muffin pans!
WE need to change that asap!
Such a great idea, pancakes and muffins! Two amazing things together will make it super amazing!
Thanks! I agree!
These look delicious! I love the idea of mixing up the mix-ins..I know some picky eaters 😉
ha I think we all do!
Quick and simple breakfast and the girls can each have their own flavor, these would be a win in our house!
Fabulous hope they enjoy them!
These look so yummy!!!
thanks so much!
What a fun idea! I would never have thought of this. I bet kids just love it!
And adults too! 🙂
Mmm pancake muffins sound sooo good! Now I’m hungry for breakfast again 😛
I am always hungry for breakfast!
I love this idea! So creative and easy to put together!
Super easy!
Wow, those pancake muffins look fantastic!
Thanks! You can basically put anything inside that you like
Brilliant! We are going camping this weekend and I am considering making something like this for breakfast! Thanks for the idea!
Oh that would be fun!
What a cute and delicious idea! Yum!
Thanks perfect for the picky eaters
I’m definitely going to have to try this out. Seems like a perfect make ahead breakfast for the week.
I hope you enjoy them
I make egg muffin a lot, but I never thought to make pancake muffins. Genius!
They are fun sometimes to switch it up
OH MY GOODNESS! What an awesome idea!!
Kids would love to make these!! Everyone get’s one just the way the like it!
Yes exactly!
I bet the kids go crazy for this. A decadent delight!
Kids and adults 🙂
I love how simple these are to make!! What a fun spin on pancakes.
super simple and portion controlled
Those are such a cute idea! I’ve never had pancake muffins but I love pancakes and muffins separately so I’m sure these would be awesome!
doubly good!
Yum yum yum. These would be great for a family get together. Awesome!
Thanks! I agree
i need to stock up on these breakfast ideas because lately, im living off of protein shakes and they are getting old.
well these are much better than protein shakes!
I love this concept! Having a customizable breakfast is huge when you have a house full.
It sure is!
You know my muffin feels, and I have the same level of feels for Kodiak Cakes. YUUUUUM
Kodiak cakes are the best! I have to come up with some more ideas for them
