These apple pancakes are made with a simple batter loaded with freshly grated tart apples, flavored with cinnamon. Perfect for a leisurely brunch, they offer a sweet, tangy twist on traditional pancakes.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded tart apples (like Granny Smith)
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
