This is a modified version of the Polish Apple Pancakes found here on . My kids devoured these and clamour for more - a fantastic, warm and delicious way to kick off a weekend or holiday. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do! (I substituted applesauce for the oil in the original recipe, then used the remaining applesauce as a topping on the pancakes in place of syrup.)
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups whole wheat all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 egg
1 tablespoon honey
1 cup low-fat milk
1 tablespoon applesauce
1 medium apple, peeled, sliced thinly, and cut into bite-sized pieces
chopped walnuts (optional)
confectioners' sugar (optional)
Directions:
1. In a bowl, blend the flour, salt and cinnamon together.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg. Add honey, milk and applesauce. Add to dry ingredients and mix until incorporated.
3. Fold in apples and walnuts (optional).
4. Pour by 1/2-cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle, then spread into large circles.
5. Flip pancakes when bubbles form. Cook until golden brown and apples are tender.
6. Top with remaining applesauce and a sprinkle of confectioners sugar.
