This is one of my all time favorite types of pancakes! It reminds me of family pancake breakfasts at local spots during maple season in upstate New York.
There are a couple of ways you can prepare the apples for these pancakes. You can either dice the apple or peel and grate it (like you would a carrot). Both end up delicious!
These are scrumptious with just maple syrup or the works—whatever you’re feeling! You can also add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter if you’d like.
The Stuff
- 1 ½ cups flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3 tablepoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 1 apple (diced with the skin on or peeled and grated)
The Steps
- Mix together dry ingredients (sift the flour for fluffier pancakes)
- Add wet ingredients and stir just until combined (avoid over mixing to maximize fluffiness)
- Lightly grease a skillet or griddle and make them pancakes!
- This recipe makes about 8 5-inch pancakes. Leftovers keep great in the freezer and are yummy toasted!

I was packing things like dry shredded wheat (*cringe*) and cold oatmeal (*double cringe*). WellContinue reading “Apple Breakfast Bread”

Got a banana you need to use up and looking for a scrumptious breakfast?
