Ingredients

  • 1 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 2 medium Apples
  • 2 tbsp Butter (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour, 1 cup Milk, 2 Eggs, 2 tbsp Sugar, 1 tsp Baking Powder, and 1/4 tsp Salt until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.
  2. 2Peel, remove the core from, and slice the 2 medium Apples into roughly 1/4-inch thick slices.
  3. 3In a 10-inch skillet, melt the 2 tbsp Butter over medium heat (350°F / 175°C). Add the sliced apples and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and begin to turn a light golden brown.
  4. 4Stir the 1/2 tsp Cinnamon into the softened apples in the skillet.
  5. 5Heat a lightly oiled griddle or a second 10-inch skillet over medium heat (350°F / 175°C).
  6. 6Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side, until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set.
  7. 7Carefully flip each pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the second side, until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  8. 8Serve the cooked pancakes immediately, topped with the caramelized apples and a dusting of the 2 tbsp Powdered Sugar.
