Whole Wheat Cinnamon Apple Pancakes By: Gianna Aldrett - Fort Bend County 4-H
Serves: 15
Ingredients: 3/4 cup whole wheat flour 3/4 cup quick-cooking oats 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon honey 1 cup lowfat milk 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 large egg 1 apple 1 teaspoon oil (for cooking pancakes)
Instructions: 1. Combine the flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a blender until the oats are finely ground. Add the honey, milk, butter, and egg and blend until smooth. 2. Cut up an apple into thin, small pieces and coat them in cinnamon. 3. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and pour some oil onto it. Put about a tablespoon of batter onto the skillet to make a pancake. Then sprinkle the apple pieces onto the pancake. Cook until bubbles break the surface of the pancake and the undersides are golden brown. Use a spatula to flip the pancake and cook it for a minute longer. 4. Serve the pancakes or cover them with tin foil to keep them warm for later. 5. Repeat with the remaining batter for more pancakes.
