Apple-Cinnamon Pancakes
Healthy apple-cinnamon pancakes with an apple-caramel topping
Ingredients
- 150 grams apple sauce (⅔ cup)
- 2 dl buckwheat flour (0.8 cup)
- 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground cardamom
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar or ½ tsp vanilla powder (or 1 tsp vanilla extract)
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- 2 dl non-dairy milk (0.8 cup)
Apple-Caramel Topping
- 1-2 apples
- 1-2 tbsp coconut sugar
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, mix buckwheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom and vanilla.
-
Add the apple sauce and mix it well.
-
Add the plant milk a little at a time until you get the consistency that you want. The pancake batter needs to be fairly thick but still spread a little when it's poured onto the pan.
-
Let it sit for 5-10 minutes.
-
Heat up a small pan (medium to medium-high heat). If you don’t have a non-stick pan you might want to add a little oil or vegan butter to the pan (and remember that the first pancake always turns out a little weird).
-
Pour in a little less than ½ cup (1 dl) pancake dough to the pan.
-
Let the pancake cook/bake until it is filled with small bubbles and there is only a little “liquid” dough left – then flip it and bake it a little on the other side.
-
Continue until there is no more dough left.
Apple-Caramel Topping
-
Cut around the core of the apple so that you have four chunks of apples. Thinly slice each chunk.
-
Heat a small pan to medium-high heat and add the apple slices to the pan (I simply used the same pan as I used for the pancakes).
-
Let them cook for a minute and then add a splash of water to help soften the apples.
-
When the slices are nice and soft add the coconut sugar and cinnamon. Stir well so that the coconut sugar doesn't burn.
-
Remove from the heat after 1-2 minutes and pour it on top of the delicious apple pancakes.
