mini pumpkin chocolate chip pancake muffins
a delicious fall inspired breakfast that will get your family running to the breakfast table

I don’t know what weekday mornings are like at your house, but here they can get CRAZY.
It doesn’t matter how early we start, we always seem to be rushing come 8 am.
Teens are not easy to wake…I know big surprise there.
Stella primps for what seems like hours, and breakfast always take a backseat. But we all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so I need to get creative at times to get them interested in getting out of beds and bathrooms.

Chocolate
works like a charm,
and fall means it’s all pumpkin all the time
Pumpkin pancake muffins with chocolate chips get them to the table and out the door on time.
and mini, well they’re just cuter that way, but feel free to make standard size muffins just increase the baking time to 15-18 minutes

My kiddos loved these muffins with syrup for breakfast, but pretty much snacked on them all day too.
Enjoy!

thanks Jessica – they went in a hurry here as well
I will snack on these all day long too ? Just the perfect size for that!!
that’s why I just love mini’s – perfect for snacking ? thanks Zainab
These are the cutest little sweet pancake bites ever! Not only are they perfect for breakfast but I have a feeling they will be perfect as a little sweet snack for me to devour this afternoon. Thanks for the great recipe!
we did just that – snacked all day long – thanks so much Thalia
Had to stop by to pin these. Definitely making them for the kiddos! ?
thanks so much, mine are requesting more already
I’m not a breakfast eater, unless you count 3 cups of coffee as breakfast! But these, I would eat! In fact, I could probably eat more than my fair share. These look so good and sound wonderful. It would be foolish to not jump out of bed for these.
