Ingredients
1 cup pancake mix
1 egg
½ cup milk
2 tbsp cream cheese, softened
¼ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
¼ cup mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
½ tsp vanilla extract
Cooking spray or parchment liner
Instructions
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, egg, milk, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth.
Add Fillings
Fold in the cream cheese, shredded cheese, berries, and chocolate chips gently so everything is evenly distributed.
Prepare Air Fryer Basket
Lightly grease silicone molds, mini muffin cups, or an air fryer-safe tray with cooking spray.
Fill the Molds
Spoon the batter into the molds about ¾ full.
Air Fry
Preheat the air fryer to 320°F (160°C) for 3 minutes.
Place the molds into the air fryer basket and cook for 8–10 minutes until golden and fully cooked in the center.
Cool and Serve
Allow the pancake bites to cool for 2 minutes before removing from molds.
Serve warm with extra berries, yogurt, or maple syrup.
Tips for Best Results
Use silicone muffin molds for easy removal.
Do not overfill the molds because the bites rise while cooking.
Fresh or frozen berries both work well.
Add cinnamon for extra flavor.
For a healthier version, use whole wheat pancake mix and low-fat cheese.
