 Ingredients:

  • 1 Granny Smith apple
  • 1 1/4 cups pancake mix (any type)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup low fat milk

Directions: Remember to Wash Your Hands!

1. Lightly coat a griddle or skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
2. Peel, core and thinly slice apple into rings.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine ingredients for pancake batter. Stir until ingredients are evenly moist. (Small lumps are ok! Over-mixing makes pancakes tough.)
4. For each pancake, place apple ring on griddle and pour about 1/4 cup batter over apple ring, starting in the center and covering apple.
5. Cook until bubbles appear. Turn and cook other side until lightly brown.


Helpful Hints:

To test the griddle to see if it is hot, sprinkle it with a few drops of water. When the drops sizzle and dance, you are ready to cook! The easiest way to pour the batter onto the hot griddle is to use a 1/4 cup measuring cup for each pancake. If the first pancake is too brown, lower the heat.

Safety Tip:

Turn the handle of the griddle inward and away from the edge of the stove. A child could grab the handle and pull the hot griddle off the stove.
