Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 cup Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 medium Apple
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 0 Optional toppings (e.g., maple syrup, yogurt, chopped nuts)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir well to combine.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Peel, core, and finely grate the apple.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the grated apple. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the oats to soften.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the butter to grease the surface.

Step 6

For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve warm, topped with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, yogurt, or chopped nuts.
