In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold the grated apple into the pancake batter until evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with vegetable oil or additional butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use a spatula to spread the batter into a circle if needed.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
