Apple Cinnamon Kefir Pancakes Food

APPLE-CINNAMON PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the milk, sugar, vanilla and eggs together in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Let cool slightly, then whisk the butter into the egg mixture; reserve the skillet for cooking the pancakes. Whisk the flour mixture into the milk mixture until combined with a few lumps. Grate the apple on the large holes of a box grater and stir into the batter.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Drop 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the hot skillet. Cook until the surface of the batter forms bubbles and the edges are set, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until puffed in the center, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a baking sheet and put in the oven to keep warm while making the rest of the pancakes. Cook the remaining batter, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter as needed.
• Serve the pancakes with butter and maple syrup or honey.

APPLE PANCAKES WITH CINNAMON BUTTER & SYRUP

Steps:

• To make the cinnamon butter, mix all the ingredients together, wrap in cling film, shape into a log and chill. You can make this up to 3 days ahead.
• Mix the flour, bicarb and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Make a well in the centre, then gradually whisk in the eggs, followed by the buttermilk, milk and melted butter. Once the mixture is smooth, stir in the grated apples and cranberries.
• Melt a little more butter in a non-stick pan or wipe with sunflower oil. When hot, add 1-3 small ladles of batter to the pan to make 1-3 small pancakes (depending on the size of your pan). Cook for 2-3 mins until bubbles appear and the underneaths are set and golden. Flip and cook for a few mins more. Transfer pancakes to a plate, cover with baking parchment and keep warm in a low oven. Cook the remaining pancakes.
• To serve, stack pancakes on plates, top with a good knob of cinnamon butter and drizzle with maple syrup.

APPLE CINNAMON PANCAKES (FROM A MIX)

Steps:

• Preheat lightly greased, or nonstick, griddle or skillet until hot. Griddle is ready when drips of water dance and sizzle when dropped on it.
• Mix all ingredients together, until smooth.
• Spoon batter by quarter cups onto griddle. Turn. Pancakes are ready to turn when the outer edges are dry. The bubbles that rise to the top of the batter will also have popped .
• Cook until golden brown on both sides.
• Serve warm.

FLUFFY KEFIR PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
• Break the egg into another bowl and lightly beat it. Then add the kefir, milk and vanilla extract and whisk them all together.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and whisk them together until combined. The batter should be a bit lumpy, but without any large pockets of flour.
• Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease and spoon on the batter - I used a 1/3 cup scoop, more or less full.
• When the surface has a fair number of bubbles, about 3-4 minutes, flip over and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
• Serve with your favorite toppings - I like a good jam, and maple syrup and fresh fruit are a natural, too.
