Cinnamon Pecan Apple Pancakes
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 large Michigan golden delicious apple, chopped
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 large Michigan golden delicious apple, chopped
Instructions
1. Blend all ingredients for pancakes together (except chopped apples) until smooth. Mix in chopped apples.
2. Heat a skillet or griddle until hot and spray with cooking spray.
3. Using a measuring cup, measure about 1/4 cup of batter and drop onto skillet. Cook until the edges have cooked and bubbles are forming on the tops on the pancakes, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Flip and cook for 2 more minutes. Continue until all of the batter is gone. Spray the skillet each time that you make a new batch.
5. Meanwhile, in a sauté pan, add butter, brown sugar, pecans and chopped apples and sauté for about 4-5 minutes until apples are soft. Stir frequently so sugar and nuts do not burn.
6. Top pancakes with apple pecan topping. Enjoy!
