Ingredients
For the mini pancakes:
- 1 cup plain flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Cooking spray or additional butter for frying
For the toppings:
- Kinder Bueno Sauce: Melted Kinder Bueno chocolate

- Sugar and Cinnamon: Mix of sugar and ground cinnamon

Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
2. Cook the Mini Pancakes:
- Heat a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
- Spoon small amounts of batter onto the griddle, about 1 tablespoon per pancake, to form mini pancakes.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
3. Prepare the Sauces:
- Melt the chocolates and spreads in separate bowls using a microwave or double boiler.
- Prepare the Oreo and cinnamon sugar toppings.
4. Serve the Mini Pancakes:
- Stack the mini pancakes on a serving platter.
- Drizzle with your choice of sauces or sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon mixture.
- Add fresh fruits, whipped cream, or sprinkles for extra fun and flavour.
5. Enjoy:
- Serve your homemade BONBONS-style mini pancakes warm and enjoy!
Tips for Perfect Mini Pancakes
- Don’t overmix the batter; a few lumps are fine and will result in fluffier pancakes.
- Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning the pancakes while ensuring they cook through.
- Get creative with the toppings and mix different sauces for unique flavour combinations.
