Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 whole large egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and finely diced)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Gently fold the diced apple into the pancake batter until evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with vegetable oil or butter.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread gently into a round shape if needed.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 minutes more.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or additional diced apples. Enjoy!
