Was on a search for Apple Pancake recipes and chose this because of the three apples instead of one that most recipes called for. An excellent find… Husband even said they were good (and he doesn’t say much!). Used 1 cup milk and a 6oz. container of plain Greek yogurt. Added 2 tsp vanilla powder to the dry mixture. Tossed the shredded apples with a sugar/cinnamon/cardamom spice blend before adding them to the batter. Delicious! Definitely a keeper!
Oh, just made them on an oiled electric griddle set at 400 and they were perfect.

victory for breakfast! the second installment of a breakfast club w friends was a success due to these beauties, even w massive improv to include: coconut milk instead of dairy, only 2 apples [1 each braeburn/honeycrisp], soda since I was out of powder, and no cast-iron skilleting this time.
still golden/tender/adorable…w butter, powdered sugar and toasted pecans on top, these were just THE best start to a day.
I’m thinking ginger-honey on the leftovers in the morning.
never a dull moment in the smitten kitchen!

I loved these! I didn’t think they were bland at all. I added vanilla extract and cinnamon. Great texture, great thickness, beautifully absorbed the powdered sugar and maple syrup.

I added vanilla extract, cinnamon, and used brown sugar plus red delicious apples… they were good, but I agree, they turned out a bit bland tasting.

Made these for dinner for myself and a few friends in the dorm common kitchen. Everyone agreed that they were absolutely delicious. (I added a splash of vanilla and some cinnamon–a bit much of both, but that was not intentional.) They were a little wet in the middle despite being fairly dark on the outside, but that may be more due to my pancake-cooking skills than anything else.

Just made this morning out of desperation with apples about to turn. Kids are eating them up! I add vanilla and cinnamon and told them they were breakfast apple pies. Thank you!!!

These were really tasty and went down very well with my hungry mob at teatime today. I used windfalls given by my lovely neighbour and added a sprinkling of cinnamon with the grated apple. Also I didn’t bother peeling the apples – far too fiddly and time-consuming. When you grate the apple the skin tends to just drop off anyway if you quarter and core the apple and then grate from the centre outwards. Thank you for posting, Deb!

Oh so good! I am sick and needed something like this with my ginger tea. It was a success! I added a bit of ricotta because I think ricotta just makes about anything better. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

Hello from England!
I tried these for breakfast this morning after some googling and they were great. Instead of all-purpose flour and the baking powder I used some wholemeal self-raising stuff, a mix of half natural yoghurt and half milk, and Bramley cooking apples. Sadly I forgot to add some spices, but they were amazing anyway! I would probably have put in some cinamon, but I like the earlier idea of nutmeg too.
We don’t have much maple syrup over here, but we do like our golden syrup! A bit more natural yoghurt on the side really made it.
Thanks for the recipe!
