Preparation
What You Need
1-1/2 cups (375 mL) all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups (375 mL) whole wheat flour
1 tbsp (15 mL) baking powder
1 tsp (5 mL) ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
3 eggs
2-1/2 cups (625 mL) Milk
1/4 cup (50 mL) butter, melted
2 tbsp (30 mL) pure maple syrup or packed brown sugar
1-1/2 cups (375 mL) shredded apple (about 2 large)
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter for cooking (approx.)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In separate bowl, whisk together eggs, Milk, melted butter and maple syrup; pour over dry ingredients and add apples. Stir gently just until combined (a few lumps should remain).
In large nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt a thin layer of butter. Scoop about 1/3 cup (75 mL) batter per pancake into skillet. Cook for 2 min or until bubbles break in batter but do not fill in; turn and cook for 1 to 2 min longer or until golden and puffed. Repeat with remaining butter and batter, adjusting heat as necessary to prevent burning.
