I've been seeing apple everything all over the blogosphere and couldn't wait to whip up something very fall-like for breakfast this weekend. Having just run out of blueberries, I thought apple would be the perfect addition to my pancakes. I used a slightly different recipe than usual, so these were a bit denser than the buttermilk pancakes, but yummy in a completely different way.
I used honeycrisp apples for these because I had them on hand, but making these with tart apples would be best so the apple flavours really stand out. Served best with warm syrup, slippers and a good book.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded tart apple
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp white sugar
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine butter, egg, milk and apple
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and sugar
- Stir flour mixture into apple mixture until just combined
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat
- Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle using a 1/4 cup for each pancake
- Brown on both sides (flip once bubbles appear on the surface)
- Serve hot
