Apple Cinnamon Pancakes





I had breakfast for dinner on my meal plan this week, but when I went to make them on Monday night, plain pancakes sounded really blah. My daughter eats quite a bit of fruit, and we had apples. Last weekend, I was on a small cinnamon and sugar toast kick. So, my small craving for cinnamon and sugar toast and having apples in the house inspired me to try apple cinnamon pancakes.

I've never made fruit pancakes, and these ended up turning out really well. They tasted really good and I was looking forward to having leftovers for work on Tuesday, either for breakfast or lunch. But all the pancakes were eaten for dinner.

To dice up the apples, I peeled and quartered them, and cut out the core. I diced them up into small pieces in my small food processor.

Ingredients:

1 cup pancake mix
2/3 cups milk
1 egg
2 Tablespoon vegetable oil
2 apples peeled, cored, and diced
1 Tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions:

To dice up the apples, I peeled and quartered them, and cut out the core. I diced them up into small pieces in my small food processor.

Mix the first 4 ingredients in a bowl. Add in the apples and cinnamon and stir well.

Heat frying pan or griddle and spray with cooking spray. I used a 1/3 cup measuring cup to portion out the pancakes on the heated griddle.

Cook on one side until there are bubbles and the edges began to look dry. Flip the pancakes and cook on the second side.

Once done, I served with maple syrup and bacon.
