Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 1 tsp caramel extract
  • 1 large apple peeled, cored and grated
  • 2 cups prepared Apple Topping
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce warmed

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix well.
  • In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, butter and caramel extract. Stir until smooth. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring until batter is free of lumps. Fold in the grated apple.
  • Place a skillet over medium-low heat and spray generously with cooking spray. Add the batter to the hot skillet in 1/3-cup increments. Use the back of a spoon to flatten the batter if needed to shape it into a circle. Cook for about 1 minute per side or until batter has cooked all the way through.
  • Repeat until the batter is gone, spraying the skillet with cooking spray before each new batch. Spoon apple topping over the top and drizzle with caramel sauce. Serve immediately!

Notes

  • Cook your pancakes on low-medium heat on the stovetop to avoid burning the cakes.
  • The pancake batter will be very thick. This is normal and ensures you’ll be producing fluffy pancakes.
  • Flatten/round out the batter with the back of a spoon or rubber spatula once it’s been dropped into the hot pan.
