Best Instant Pot Pancake Bites

Instant Pot pancake bites are the perfect pressure cooker breakfast. Use protein packed pancake mix, traditional or make gluten free pancakes in minutes!

We first began with making these pressure cooker egg bites that are similar to a crustless quiche.

Great when taken on the go for breakfast on busy mornings.

This is what we used for our first batch, we will share other methods below as well but if you haven’t tried protein packed pancake mix it’s pretty good and great if you’re on a lower carb diet.

• I added fresh blueberries to this batch because that is my favorite fruit and a great size for pancake bites I thought.
• I probably wouldn’t use frozen blueberries or another berry for that matter.

My thought is that they’d sweat a bit in the cooking process and would make the pancake bites a bit wetter.

They may not cook thoroughly all the way through if so.

I’d imagine diced fresh, yellow, bananas would work well too though. That is our next add in.

For the protein pancake mix you use:

• 1 cup mix
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 c blueberries if you choose to add those

This will make 1 full batch of pressure cooker pancake bites which is 7 total. 

Like I said this Instant Pot egg mold works really well and does not require any non stick spray as it is made of silicone and allows you to literally POP the pancakes right out with no issue.

It does stay warm for a little while once you take it out but cools off rather quickly so you can push one out on to a plate and serve them.

• Refill them and make another round if you want more too.

If you have ever “baked” anything in your pressure cooker you do know that there is a bit of a different texture so don’t be alarmed if it is bit off from traditional pancakes.

These are a great crazy morning breakfast option for us…and we hope you love them too.

Looks yummy right??!!
