Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 1 whole Large egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 medium Apple, peeled and diced
• 0 as needed Non-stick cooking spray or butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or butter.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar, and salt until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the batter light and fluffy.

Step 6

Fold in the diced apple pieces until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the apple pancakes cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the pan.

Step 10

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
