Instructions

1 ✓

Peel and grate the apples using the large holes of a box grater.

Tip: If the apples are very juicy, squeeze them out slightly, or the batter will be too runny.
2 ✓

Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.

Tip: Mixing dry ingredients prevents clumps.
3 ✓

Add the eggs and milk, mixing until smooth. Finally, loosen the batter with the sparkling water.

Tip: The batter should be thicker than crepe batter, more like drop-scone batter.
4 ✓

Fold the grated apples and a little oil into the batter.

Tip: Oil in the batter helps prevent sticking.
5 ✓

Heat the skillet and grease lightly with oil. Drop small mounds of batter with a ladle and flatten them into discs.

Tip: Don't try to fill the whole pan with one giant pancake; make smaller silver-dollar sized ones.
6 ✓

Fry over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.

Tip: Flip when bubbles appear on the surface.
7 ✓

Serve dusted with cinnamon sugar.

Tip: Also excellent with maple syrup.

Recipe FAQ

Why do they stick?
The sugar (fructose) in the apple caramelizes with heat and can stick. Use a good non-stick pan and a bit more oil than for regular pancakes, frying over medium heat.
The center is raw.
The batter was too thick or the heat too high. Cook slower so the apple softens inside without burning the outside.
