Peanut Butter Apple Pancakes

Step 1

In a nonstick pan combine 3/4 cup chopped apples, maple syrup and cinnamon powder. Cook for 3-4 minutes until apples are semi soft. Turn off the flame and let it cool down.

Step 2

Now, in the blender combine cooked apples, peanut butter and ¼ cup almond milk. Blend it smooth.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl combine whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Mix and keep it aside.

Step 4

Thereafter, mix in the blended apples, soaked flax meal and the remaining milk to the flour mixture. Whip it well. The batter would be thick and sticky almost like a cake batter.

Step 5

Heat, a griddle/pan and grease it (optional). With the help of an ice cream scoop pour the batter onto the warm griddle and spread it gently into a small round shape. Let it cook from the bottom until golden in color. Place 3-4 thin apple slices on top of the pancake. Then, gently flip over with the help of the spatula making sure that the sliced apples do not fall of the pancakes. After flipping cook the pancake by pressing it gently with the spatula so that it cooks through inside and the apple slices sticks to the pancake. Cook until light brown. Scoop the pancakes with a flat spatula from the pan to the serving plate.

Step 6

Repeat the above step for the rest of the batter. Dust the pancakes with powdered sugar or drizzle maple syrup and serve immediately.
