Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
- ½ cup finely grated apple
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Gently fold in the grated apple.
- Heat a lightly buttered nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Pour small amounts of batter (about 1-2 tablespoons) onto the hot surface to form mini pancakes.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- You can use any type of apple you have on hand.
- If the batter is too thick, add a tablespoon or two more milk.
- These mini pancakes freeze well. Let them cool completely, then place them in a single layer on a baking sheet to freeze. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag.
