Easy Cinnamon Apple Pancakes Recipe

Caramelized Apple Topping:

1. Peel, core and chop 2 apples. The apples should be small bite-sized pieces.
2. In a small saucepan or skillet, melt 2 tbsp butter.
3. Add the chopped apples, brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon and vanilla.

4. Sauté until the apples are soft and the sugar mixture is of a syrup consistency.

5. At this point you can add a splash of bourbon for flavour!

Apple Pancakes:

1. Preheat a pancake griddle (or large skillet) to low-medium heat.
2. In a large bowl whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger and cloves.
3. In a separate bowl whisk the milk, eggs, vanilla and melted butter.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Combine by lightly mixing together (small lumps are ok).
5. Peel and core 2 apples. Use a box grater and grate the apples.
6. Fold the grated apple into the pancake batter.
7. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the batter for each pancake, onto the preheated griddle.
8. Cook for about 2-3 minutes each side, or until you see the small bubbles popping. The tops of the pancakes should be golden brown.
9. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a cinnamon/sugar mix and the apple topping.
