Battered Apple Pancakes

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 large apples or 4 small
• 200g plain flour
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 egg
• 250ml milk
• 2 Tbsp butter, melted

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Leaving the skin on, slice each apple into 5-6 slices, depending on the size. Using a corer or sharp knife, carefully remove the core from each apple slice. Set apple slices aside.
   
2. In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, and baking powder. Then add the eggs and melted butter. Whisk the milk in slowly.
3. Mix batter until well combined and all the lumps are removed.
   
4. Heat a large frying pan with butter to medium heat. Dip each of the apples into the batter one by one. Spoon each apple slice with batter into the pan. You will need to cook in batches. Cook each pancake on either side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
   
5. Serve for breakfast or as a fruity dessert. Garnish with icing sugar or maple syrup.
