Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup apple cider
  • 1/4 cup grated apple
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter ((melted))
  • maple syrup and butter for serving
  • toasted pecans and walnuts ((optional))

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the vanilla, cider, grated apple, milk and egg. All of these ingredients should be at room temperature. Pour into the dry ingredients and fold gently until smooth. Fold in the melted butter and let the batter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Heat a lightly buttered griddle over medium to medium high heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle for each pancake, and let cook until bubbles form and the bottom is browned. Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until brown on the underside, and the pancake springs back when pressed with a finger.
  • Serve with warm maple syrup, butter, and nuts, if using.
