Servings: 18 Pancakes
Ingredients
- 3 cups unbleached all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups buttermilk
- 6 tablespoons salted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 cup peeled and grated apple, about 1 large apple
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar and salt. Make a hole in the middle of them.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: buttermilk, eggs and vanilla extract.
- Peel and grate your apple. I like to grate it right before I combine everything so it doesn't turn brown.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry and gently whisk it a few times.
- Pour in the melted butter and whisk it all until it is just fully combined being careful not to over mix. Lumpy batter is good batter!
- Fold in the grated apple.
- Let the pancake batter rest for 5 minutes while you preheat an electric griddle to 350°F. If you don't have a griddle you can use a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat with a tablespoon of butter or oil.
- Using a ladle or ½ cup measuring cup pour the pancake batter onto the hot griddle. Should be around 4 inches in diameter.
- Once the pancakes start to bubble and pop on the first side, about 1-2 minutes, flip them. Cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown and the top of the pancake springs back when touched.
- Serve the warm pancakes with a pat of butter, some warm syrup or your favorite pancake toppings and dig in!
