Apple Pancakes with Sauteed Apples



I love to go apple picking. I love coming home with way too many apples and then trying to decide what to make with them. So I created Apple Pancakes with Sauteed Apples. The pancakes are filled with flavor thanks to heaps of apple sauce, cider, and a nice dose of cinnamon. I then topped them with sauteed apples and a drizzle of maple syrup. These were so delicious and a perfect way to cook up some of my fruit.



Ingredients for Apple Pancakes with Sauteed Apples:


Pancakes:

2 cups flour

3 tablespoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

1 1/4 cups apple sauce

1/4 cup apple cider

2 eggs

2 tablespoons melted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla

cooking spray


Apple Topping:

3 honeycrisp apples, peeled, cored and sliced

1 granny smith apple, peeled, cored and sliced

1 golden delicious apple, peeled, cored and sliced

2 tablespoons butter

3 tablespoons sugar - 1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt


Time-Saving Tip: Measure out the dry ingredients the night before serving. Feel free to use purchased apple sauce.


Let's see what we need.

We're ready to cook.


Melt the butter in a large pan and add the apples, salt, sugar, and 3 tablespoons of cider. Saute until apples are tender. Add a few teaspoons of cider if the apples are too dry. Set aside.


In one bowl combine all of the dry ingredients and in a second bowl whisk all of the wet ingredients together. Then add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined.


Lightly coat a non-stick pan with cooking spray. Heat to medium and add pancake batter in 1/3 cup measures; once the pancakes start to bubble flip and continue cooking until both sides are golden. Serve the pancakes with the apples and a drizzle of maple syrup.


They're ready! Apple Pancakes with Sauteed Apples are so delicious. If you ever wondered what fall tastes like, here is your answer.
