Apple Topping :

2  apples any type
2  tbsp  butter
2  tbsp  brown sugar
1  tsp  ground cinnamon
1/2  cup  maple syrup  (I use honey)


Old Fashioned Pancakes :

1 1/2  cup  all-purpose flour
3  tsp  baking powder
1  tsp  ground cinnamon
1  tsp  salt
1  tbsp  granulated sugar
1 1/4  cup  milk
1  large  egg
3  tbsp  unsalted butter  -  melted & cooled
1  tsp  vanilla extract


Method :


1.  For the Apple Topping :  Prepare apples by peeling, removing the core and cut into small pieces.

2.  In a medium saucepan, add butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, syrup and chopped apples.  Cook for 3-6 minutes on medium heat until apples are soft, stirring occasionally.  Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

3.  For the Old Fashioned Pancakes :  In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and ground cinnamon until thoroughly combined.  Set aside.

4.  In a large bowl, whisk together milk, egg and vanilla extract.  Slowly pour in the cooled melted butter, vigorously whisking (so the heat of the butter does not cook the raw egg).

5.  Slowly stir in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, forming a smooth, fluffy batter.

6.  Spray a large pan with cooking spray over medium heat.  Scoop 1/4 cup of pancake batter into the pan.  Cook pancake for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface.  Then flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

7.  As pancake are ready, garnish with apple topping and serve hot...
