👩🍳 Preparation of the apple pancakes
1. Prepare the apple 🍎
Wash and peel the apple if desired.
Grate it finely with a grater.
If it releases a lot of juice, squeeze it very lightly to remove some of the excess moisture.
💡 Tip: Don’t squeeze the apple all the way out. Its juice contributes to the softness of the pancakes.
2. Prepare the dough
In a bowl, break the egg.
Add the milk and sugar, then whisk for a few moments.
Then stir in the flour, baking powder and cinnamon.
Mix until you get a homogeneous dough.
Finally, add the grated apple and mix gently.
The batter should be thick but soft enough to be easily placed in the pan.
3. Bake the pancakes 🥞
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add a small amount of butter or oil.
Drop about two tablespoons of batter into the pan to form each pancake.
Cook for about 1 min 30 to 2 minutes, until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to set.
Carefully flip and continue cooking for about 1 to 2 minutes.
The pancakes should be nicely browned on both sides.
🔥 Tip: Avoid a fire that is too strong. The apple can caramelize the outside quickly while the inside is not yet cooked enough.
🍯 4. Serve
