Apple pancakes are soft, tasty, butter-free sweets that are prepared in just a few minutes without using the oven!
They are a richer and more fragrant variant of classic pancakes
The batter is soft, light, and airy thanks to the presence of small pieces of apple
The surface remains slightly crunchy, while the inside stays moist and fragrant.
The natural sweetness of the apples reduces the need for added sugars, making them healthier compared to other desserts.
They contain complex carbohydrates that provide long-term energy, perfect for starting the day with the right boost.
Apples provide fiber that aids digestion and promotes a feeling of satiety.
Ideal for serving at breakfast to start the day with taste and nourishment, paired with a good tea or a cup of milk, or they are a tasty yet light option to break the hunger in the afternoon, perhaps with some yogurt or fresh fruit.

Steps for Making Apple Pancakes
To make the delicious apple pancakes, start by peeling an apple and cutting it into small pieces.
At this point, add the chopped apples and mix well.
Grease a non-stick pan with a flat bottom with a little sunflower oil and wipe with a paper towel.
Heat and pour the batter with a ladle or spoon, forming disks and cook over low heat
When bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to lift, flip them with a spatula and cook on the other side for another 2-3 minutes, until golden.
Once cooked, they can be stacked on a serving plate and accompanied with a spoonful of honey or maple syrup.
Tips and Storage
Use sweet and juicy apples: such as golden apples
Cook over medium-low heat: Too high a temperature would burn the outside leaving the inside raw.
You can store apple pancakes in an airtight container, separating them with parchment paper to prevent them from sticking. They keep for 2-3 days. Before serving, heat them in the pan to maintain the crispy exterior and soft inside.
You can also freeze them. Arrange them on a tray and freeze them individually, then transfer them to a food bag. They last up to 2 months. When ready to use, just heat them in a pan or oven.
