1-Point Fun Pancake Poppers
(A Fun, Kid-Friendly, Weight Watchers-Friendly Treat!)
Introduction
If you love pancakes but want something fun, bite-sized, and Weight Watchers-friendly, these Pancake Poppers are perfect! Made with Kodiak pancake mix for extra protein, a pop of crunch from Fruity Pebbles, and sugar-free syrup for sweetness, these are a delicious breakfast or snack without the guilt.
Ingredients (Makes 24 poppers, 1 point each)
✅ 1 to 1½ cups Kodiak Cakes pancake mix (protein-packed & WW-friendly)
✅ ¾ cup water (adjust for desired batter consistency)
✅ 1 cup Fruity Pebbles cereal (adds crunch & fun colors!)
✅ Sugar-free maple syrup, to taste
✅ Cooking spray (to prevent sticking)
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
2️⃣ Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine Kodiak Cakes pancake mix and water, whisking until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable.
3️⃣ Add Fruity Pebbles: Gently fold in ½ cup of Fruity Pebbles into the batter, saving the remaining ½ cup for topping.
4️⃣ Fill the muffin tin: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each mini muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full.
5️⃣ Top with more Fruity Pebbles for extra crunch and color.
6️⃣ Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
7️⃣ Cool for a few minutes, then remove from the tin.
8️⃣ Drizzle with sugar-free maple syrup before serving. Enjoy!
