Ingredients
1 1/4 cups pancake mix, such as Bisquick
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 1/3 cups water
Directions
Special equipment:
10 metal cupcake or egg tart molds- Prepare your steamer setup: Fill a heavy-bottomed pot (the same diameter as your steamers) with 3 to 4 inches water. Bring the water to a rapid boil. Line 10 individual 3-inch cupcake molds with paper liners and arrange in 2 bamboo steamers.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the pancake mix, flour, brown sugar and water until smooth. (The batter should be thick but runny.)
- Divide the batter evenly between the molds, filling each about three-quarters full. Stack the bamboo steamers and cover with the lid. Steam for 15 minutes. Lift the lid, remove the steamers and allow the cupcakes to cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Cook’s Note
The cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature for up to 4 days.
