Pancake + Muffin Tin = Puffins!

Well, these are just genius.  I LOVE breakfast foods, but don't usually have the patience or time to cook in the morning.  Enter Puffins. Delicious pancakes in muffin form.  Thank you The World According to Egg Face for this awesome new recipe (I did modify it a bit).  The best part is the ability to use a wide variety of toppings. My only mistake was asking J if I should make one tray or two. Of course he suggested I make 2 trays worth. We ate Puffins for 4 days.

ABOUT
Serves: Each tray makes about 3-4 servings
Cook time according to Egg Face: Doesn't say
Cook time according to Rachel: 15-18 mins (plus any cook time for meat toppings)
How difficult was this for Rachel? Easy!

INGREDIENTS
Pancake mix (any additional ingredients listed on the batter box)
Toppings of your choice
(I used turkey sausage, bacon, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and bananas)
Cooking spray (IMPORTANT)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix batter according to directions on box. 1 Batch of pancakes as directed on box makes 12 puffins.

Spray muffin tin with cooking spray. Pour batter into muffin cups filling up only half way. 

(I went filled the cups a tad too high)

Put desired toppings on each cup. 

If you use any meat, make sure to prepare ahead of time

Bake for 12-15 mins. They should be a bit more golden brown than these above. Because I filled the cups too high, only the sides browned. Whatever, they were still delicious.

Serve right away!
