Step 1

Whisk together the first 6 ingredients (buttermilk, water, eggs, salt, sugar and yeast).

Step 2

Add the flour one cup at a time until it is the texture of cake batter. There should not be lumps of flour.

Step 3

Mix in the finely chopped apples.

Step 4

You have to put the batter in a warm place to rise. Pour the batter in an oven proof bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel. Let it sit in a warm oven for 1 hour. It will about double in volume.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat 3-4 Tbsp of oil over medium-low, medium heat.

Step 6

Place heaping Tbsp of dough onto the skillet and saute until golden brown, then turn over. You can get better shaped pancakes if you use a wet tablespoon to put the dough in the skillet and scrape it off with a teaspoon.

Step 7

Continue to oil your skillet in between each batch. They turn out nicer on a well-oiled skillet.
