Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups apple cider
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For Topping: Maple syrup, whipped cream, extra cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. A few lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

  • For a stronger apple flavor, you can reduce the apple cider to 1 1/2 cups and add 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce to the batter.
  • Ensure your apple cider is at room temperature for best results.
  • Don’t overmix the batter, as this can lead to tough pancakes.
