by Jodie Fitz
Great breakfast filler that you can have made ahead of busy days.
2 apples
1 ¾ cups PICS flour, unbleached
½ teaspoon PICS sea salt
1 tablespoon PICS baking powder
1 teaspoon PICS cinnamon
1 cup PICS milk
4 oz. PICS cinnamon applesauce
3 tablespoons PICS brown sugar
1 PICS egg, large
1 teaspoon PICS vanilla extract
Nonstick cooking spray
Peanut butter
Wash, peel, core and dice one apple into small pieces. Set it aside
Add the flour, sea salt, baking powder and cinnamon into a bowl. Stir the dry ingredients together so that the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the milk, cinnamon applesauce, brown sugar, egg and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Hand whisk the ingredients together.
Fold in the diced apples.
Cook the pancake batter in a griddle style pan coated with nonstick spray over medium heat until both sides are golden brown and the inside is fully cooked.
Wash, core and slice the additional apple. Create a breakfast pancake sandwich with peanut butter and apple slices.
