Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 11/4 cups warm milk
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh blueberries if desired

Instructions
 

  • In a small mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  • In a larger bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract, add the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest.
  • Lightly grease the insides of the egg mold. Pour the batter in up to 3/4 full. If adding blueberries, drop in 2-3 berries.
  • Pour 1 cup of water (1.5 for 8-quart IP) into the bottom of the pot. Set the trivet inside. Place the egg molds on the trivet. You can stack up to 3 on top of each other.
  • Close the lid and set the vent to sealing. Press the pressure cook button and set the time for 8 minutes. It will take about 7 minutes to come up to pressure. When the time is up, allow a 3 minute natural pressure release before releasing the remaining pressure.
  • Be careful when removing the lid so water doesn’t pour into the mold.
  • Take out the egg molds and carefully flip them upside down to release the pancake bites. Recipe will make 14-21 bites depending on how full you fill the mold. Serve with syrup or powdered sugar.

Notes

  • If adding fruit, be sure to only use fresh fruit as frozen has additional water that will make your pancake bites soggy.
  • Don’t overfill the wells, especially if adding fruit. They need room to expand.
