Ingredients

Scale
  • 20 g fresh yeast or 7 g active dry yeast
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 5 apples (soft variety)
  • Frying oil

Instructions

  1. Warm the milk until it reaches about 100-110°F (38-43°C) and combine it with yeast and a tablespoon of sugar in a bowl. Let it sit until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the milk-yeast mixture with flour, eggs, vanilla extract, remaining sugar, cinnamon, and salt using an electric mixer until combined.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 45-70 minutes).
  4. Peel and dice the apples into small cubes; stir them into the batter.
  5. Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Spoon batter into the pan for each pancake, cooking until golden brown on both sides.
  6. Dust with powdered sugar before serving warm.

Nutrition

Keywords: Use fresh yeast for best results; ensure it's active before use. Smaller apple pieces will cook evenly within the pancakes. For added flavor variations, try incorporating spices like nutmeg or using different types of apples.
