These are my own apple pancakes—quick to make, and lovely for children or breakfast. Smaller, thinner ones cook especially well.

Homemade apple flapjacks served with maple syrup.

Ingredients

  • 2 apples, peeled, cored and grated
  • 1 mug (about 250 g) flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Milk, as needed
  • Butter, for the pan
  • Maple syrup, for serving
  • Optional: raisins or desiccated coconut

Method

  1. Sift together the flour, baking powder and cinnamon.
  2. Add the egg and enough milk to make a spreadable batter.
  3. Stir in the grated apples. The batter should spread when pushed with a spoon but should not run by itself.
  4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add a little butter.
  5. Spoon the batter into the pan. Cook for about 2–4 minutes, until browned underneath, then turn and cook the other side.
  6. Serve with maple syrup. Add raisins or desiccated coconut to the batter if you like.
