Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Provides structure; can substitute with whole wheat flour for added fiber.
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar Adds a touch of sweetness; consider coconut sugar for a natural alternative.
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder Ensure it's fresh for optimal rising.
  • 1 pinch salt Enhances overall flavor and balances sweetness.
  • 1 cup milk Whole milk is preferred but any alternative works.
  • 1 large egg Binds the batter; flax eggs are a plant-based alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter Adds richness; swap with melted coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Optional, but highly recommended for extra depth.
For the Mix-Ins
  • 1 cup blueberries Fresh or frozen add a burst of fruitiness.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined. Add in your choice of mix-ins.
  4. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease the mini muffin tin.
  5. Scoop the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cavity about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until they’re golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the poppers cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing them.
  8. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like syrup or fresh berries.
