Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.25 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large egg
- 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced thinly)
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for caramelizing apples)
- 0.5 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 0 whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and egg until fully combined.
Step 3
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
Step 5
Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
Step 6
In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to coat the apples evenly.
Step 7
Cook the apples for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender and caramelized. Remove from heat.
Step 8
To serve, stack the pancakes on a plate and top with the caramelized apples. Drizzle with caramel sauce and, if desired, a dollop of whipped cream.
Step 9
Enjoy your Caramel Apple Pancakes warm!
