How To Make Cake Pops With Pancake Mix

Breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day. Yet, due to busy schedules, it often becomes the most repetitive and boring meal of the day. Pancakes are a favorite breakfast dish, but if eaten on a daily basis, even the biggest pancake lover would get tired of them. I have a solution for that!

If you have kids, then you know that they can be especially difficult to please when it comes to what they eat. How about making something that your kids will eat without complaining?

In fact, I bet they will ask you for a second helping! I have just the recipe for you to try: pancake cake pops! With the word ‘cake’ in the title, it’s sure to excite your kids.

Chocolate Cake Pops — Salt & Baker

This recipe uses pantry staples, while offering a new twist on traditional pancakes. The blueberry and lemon zest combination are a winning pair of flavors.

Keep in mind that this recipe does require the use of a cake pop maker, which is a relatively new kitchen gadget. Once you use one though, you will likely be hooked. When you own one of these new gizmos, the possibilities in your kitchen will be endless.

Once baked, these cake pops resemble mini doughnut holes, which is another bonus for you if you’re trying to feed picky eaters! This recipe could be tweaked to omit the fruit if you desire, and instead sprinkle cinnamon, powdered sugar, or both, on top.

While it’s likely that these will all be gobbled up in record time, if you happen to have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge to be enjoyed another day. When you are ready to enjoy them again, pop them in the oven for a few minutes to heat through.

Pair this with a side of bacon, and you have yourself a delicious, effortless breakfast. While this cake pop recipe calls for blueberries, feel free to change it up by adding a different kind of fruit. Raspberries and chopped strawberries are good alternatives.

They are traditionally severed around Christmas time with mulled wine. I have made ebelskivers super easy using my pancake mix recipe and cake pop maker for mini pancake bites.

1. Measure all the ingredients and mix in a bowl. It is ok if it is a little bit lumpy. Next I like to pour mine into a pancake pen like this one to make it super easy to squeeze out. Plus you can make great pancake shapes with it.

2. Heat cake pop maker according to manufacturer’s directions. Once the maker is hot, spray with a little cooking oil and pour in the batter. While the batter is still liquid, quickly add one blueberry to each mini pancake bite.

3. Close the cake pop maker and allow to bake according to manufacturer’s directions. Mine has a little light that goes off when it is done. Lift the lid and let rest for one more minute.

4. Remove with a long skewer, chopstick or carefully with a fork. Serve with a little maple syrup, sprinkle of powdered sugar (not clean), some homemade strawberry jam (not clean) or homemade pancake syrup (not clean).

These are such a huge hit at my house with all my kids. Everyone just loves them. We usually server about 6 little bites for one serving and a glass of milk for added protein. But there are always plenty leftover for breakfast for the next few days. I like making these on a Sunday morning, so we have a few breakfast options throughout the week.

I received this as a gift, and honestly my first thought was “gimmick”.

Well it turns out, it’s a great little machine and extremely useful. I LOVE the taste of cake pops made this way, compared to the cake and frosting method, and you can add a filling if you like.

Kohls often has it on sale and if you can catch it with a sale and a coupon, you can usually get a great price.

Cake Pop Cake Recipe

The question I get the most about the Babycakes Cake Pop Maker is how I get my cake pops round, with many people telling me that theirs come out flat or and odd shape. My immediate question is if they used a regular cake mix or a recipe from Babycakes.

Given that a regular mix still requires adding ingredients, measuring and mixing, it only takes a few more quick steps to make them from scratch using one of the Babycakes recipes. Making a recipe from scratch with the cake pop maker is still quicker than the original method of baking a cake, and then chopping it up and mixing it with frosting and shaping the balls by hand.

EDITED TO ADD: As of 2017, it looks like the recipes are no longer available on the website unfortunately. Never fear, I have a chocolate cake pop recipe at the end of this post, and you can find the VANILLA CAKE POP MAKER RECIPE here.

Babycakes has their instruction manual, with recipes (previously available on their website). I absolutely LOVE the vanilla cake pop recipe that is in the manual, and it’s my go to recipe for cake pops, it reminds me of pound cake. I’ve found each one that I’ve tried to be delicious and they work great with the machine. I am very excited that they have a brand new cookbook of cake pop recipes with 175 cake pop recipes. I can not wait to try them.

My take is that if you are going to use the machine, use one of their recipes. They’ve been developed for and tested in the Babycakes machine. The included instruction manual includes some great recipes.

I’m not saying cake mixes won’t work, I just think that it makes sense that you will get the best results following a recipe that was made specifically for this purpose. The Babycakes recipes seem to produce a much thicker batter, which certainly makes it easier to fill the wells of the machine.

The batter is so thick that put my batter into a Ziploc freezer bag and “pipe” it into the wells. I tried this with a cake mix and it was not fun, the cake mix was just too runny. I also saw a suggestion to usea Pancake Pen for the batter. This sounds like an excellent idea that I might have to try.

As of 2019, it appears that Babycakes no longer sells cake pop mixes. I’ve seen this cake pop mix on Amazon, but can’t speak to the results it produces.

If you want to use a store bought mix, I recommend cutting back on the amount of liquid in the recipe. This is something that is likely going to be different with each brand and flavor, meaning there is no blanket “cut back x amount”. I would also recommend adding a bit more baking powder to the mix, even if just half a teaspoon.

Another fun thing about making your cake pops with the Babycakes machine is that you can easily add/inject a filling into the cake pops! We’ve only used frosting (because we love frosting) but I’m sure you could put lots of other yummy fillings in.

Also, check out this fantastic video from Ahh’s Cakes where she uses the Babycakes Cake Pop Maker and goes through every step – it’s about ten minutes long and very helpful. She appears to be using one of the Pancake Pens to dispense her batter.
