Ingredients
  

Pancakes
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 apple peeled, cored, and diced

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Non-stick skillet or griddle
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar.
  2. In another bowl, mix milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Batter may be slightly lumpy.
  4. Fold in diced apple gently.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form and edges look set, about 2–3 minutes.

  8. Stack pancakes on a plate, top with apple slices, syrup, or whipped cream, and serve warm.
