Irresistible Apple Pancake Simple Recipe to Try
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and grated
- as needed butter or oil for cooking
- as desired maple syrup and powdered sugar for serving
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Fold in the grated apple until evenly distributed in the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and add a little butter or oil to coat the surface.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the pancakes to a warm plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve your delicious apple cinnamon cloud pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top if desired.
