Apple pancakes are an incredible way to celebrate brunch, birthdays and of course pancake day. This easy breakfast pancakes are not only healthy pancakes filled with fresh apple but they also take incredible too. I love the mix of fresh apple which adds a little crunch to soft stack of pancakes recipe.
Melt the butter on a low heat and remove to cool slightly.
In a large bowl mix together the butter, egg, milk and grated apple.
In a bowl weigh out the flour, sugar, baking powder and spices.
Sieve in the flour mix to the wet ingredients and whisk until you get a medium thick mix. You don't want it too runny. The mix will not be completely smooth because of the grated apple.
Get a heavy based pan or griddle nice and hot and drop spoonfuls of mix on to get the size you want. You might need a little butter if your pan isn't non stick. My pancakes were about 2 tablespoons of mix each.
After a minute see how brown the pancakes are and if they are starting to brown flip them. If they aren't completely cooked you can flip them back later.
- Put the finished on a warm plate and cover with a clean towel to keep warm while you make more for the stack.
- They are lovely with a drizzle of maple syrup but to make it more special, I would recommend fresh fruit. Especially strawberries, kiwi and pears. The flavours work so well together with the pancakes.
Notes
•Best served hot from the pan.•Can be eaten cold later.•Tastes wonderful with fresh fruit, maple syrup or even ice cream.•Run a plate under hot water to heat it up and when the pancakes are ready pop them on the warm plate and cover with a tea towel if you want to make more and serve them together.•To make these even more special turn them in to spiced apple pancakes. Add a teaspoon of cinnamon or mixed spice (UK blend of pumpkin spices).
