Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 medium Apples (preferably crisp and sweet, such as Fuji or Honeycrisp)
• 2 tablespoons Neutral cooking oil (such as canola or vegetable oil)
• 0 Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Set them aside.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the apple slices, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, drop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading it slightly with the back of a spoon.

Step 8

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.

Step 10

Serve the pancakes warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired. They pair beautifully with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of maple syrup.
