Apple Pie Pancakes with Vanilla Maple Syrup

Apple Pie Pancakes with Vanilla Maple Syrup

Pancakes:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp light brown sugar, packed
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground cloves
Pinch salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 Tbsp melted butter, cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 medium apple, grated
Butter for griddle

Syrup:

1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract

In a medium sized bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt.  Add the milk, egg, melted butter and vanilla and stir until just combined.  Fold in the grated apple.

Warm the maple syrup and stir in the vanilla.  Set aside.

Preheat a griddle and brush with a bit of melted butter.  Using a 1/4-cup measure, scoop batter onto griddle and cook 1-2 minutes or until small bubbles begin to form on the pancakes.  Flip them and continue cooking until golden brown (about 1 more minute).  Serve immediately with the warm syrup.

Good pancakes.  Not as tender as my favorite Buttermilks, but the apple-spice flavor makes these a winner!
