Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
1 large egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup apples, peeled and finely diced
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine wet and dry mixtures, stirring gently until just combined; ensure you leave a few small lumps for fluffiness.
Fold in the finely diced apples and ground cinnamon.
Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster or microwave for 30 seconds. To achieve maximum fluffiness, avoid overmixing the batter. If the consistency is too thin, add an extra tablespoon of flour. For a protein-rich side, serve with turkey bacon.
