Veronicas Apple Pancakes Food

APPLESAUCE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the cake flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir together and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Applesauce, vanilla, cinnamon and eggs. Slowly drizzle the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spoon as you go. Once combined, if the mixture needs more moisture, splash in a little more milk. The batter should be pourable.
• Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low to low heat. Smear a little bit of butter over the surface and drop tablespoon-sized amounts of batter onto the pan (more if you want larger pancakes). Wait a minute or so, then flip to the other side. The pancakes should be light golden brown and set in the middle.
• Top with butter and drizzle with warm maple syrup.
• Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
• Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.

APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet and place in the oven.
• Whisk 1 3/4 cups flour, the sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl. In small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk the eggs with the milk and vanilla extract. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large well-seasoned cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Whisk the butter into the milk mixture. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry mixture, and whisk just long enough to make a thick batter, (if there are a couple lumps that's okay).
• Using a melon baller or an apple corer, peel and core the apples keeping them whole. Slice the apples crosswise to make 1/4-inch rounds. Put some flour on a plate and dredge the apple slices until lightly coated, shaking off any excess flour.
• In the same skillet over medium to medium-low heat, place 3 apple slices about 3-inches apart in the skillet. Cook without turning until browned, about 3 minutes. Ladle about 2 tablespoons of the batter over each apple ring. Cook, until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add a nut-sized bit of butter to the skillet, as needed, and flip the pancakes, cook until golden on the underside, about 1 minute more.
• Serve immediately or transfer to oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining apples and batter. Serve with warm maple syrup.

VERONICA'S APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine butter, egg, milk and apple. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and sugar. Stir flour mixture into apple mixture, just until combined.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Sift dry ingredients.
• Add milk, oil and dry ingredients to eggs and mix well.
• Fold in apples.
• Preheat lightly coated griddle or skillet over medium heat ( I use Pam or small amount of vegetable oil) -- Test by adding a few drops of water on hot pan -- When the drops start to "dance" on the griddle it is time to cook.
• For each pancake pour about a 1/4 cup of batter onto a hot griddle and Cook on first side until bubbles that form begin to pop and edges look dry.
• With a spatula, turn and cook until second side is rich golden brown.

APPLE PANCAKE

Steps:

• Combine the eggs, flour, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, the pinch of salt, the baking powder, and the milk in a blender and blend until smooth. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and add it, the vanilla, and the 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg to the batter and blend until mixed. Allow to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Place the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in your skillet or oven pancake pan and melt while you are preheating the oven to 400 degrees (watch that you do not let it brown). Swirl the melted butter to coat the sides of the pan.
• Combine the 1/3 cup sugar with the 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and the pinch of nutmeg. Sprinkle half this sugar mixture over the melted butter in the pan. Evenly layer the apple slices on top. Sprinkle the rest of the sugar mixture over the apples. Bake this for 5 minutes or until the mixture is bubbly.
• Gently pour the batter over the apples.
• Bake for 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees and continue to bake for 10 more minutes. Serve at once with your choice of toppings.

REUBEN'S APPLE PANCAKE

Steps:

• Peel, quarter and core apple and slice into 1/4-inch thick, quarter-moon-shaped slices. Place in bowl with raisins, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. Mix well; cover and allow to marinate for at least 24 hours; longer if possible. Stir occasionally.
• Beat eggs with milk and beat in flour and vanilla to make smooth batter.
• In a well-seasoned 8-inch French steel skillet with sloping sides and long handle heat 2 tablespoons butter until it sizzles. Add drained apples and raisins and cook over medium heat, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until apples soften.
• Add another 2 tablespoons of butter and melt. Pour in batter evenly and cook over medium-high heat, pulling sides of pancake away from edges and allowing batter to flow under and cook. Keep lifting with spatula to keep from sticking. When pancake begins to firm up, sprinkle 1/4 to 1/3 of the sugar evenly over the top.
• Add another few tablespoons of butter, slipping it underneath the pancake. Then flip the pancake and cook, allowing the sugar to caramelize. When it begins to brown, sprinkle top with another 1/4 to 1/3 of sugar. Add more butter if needed. Flip pancake again and allow sugar to caramelize on the bottom.
• Sprinkle 1/4 to 1/3 of sugar on top. Add more butter to pan if needed. Flip pancake once again and continue caramelzing.
• Sprinkle top lightly with sugar and place in 400 degree oven for 20 minutes, to caramelize further.
