Apple Cinnamon Kefir Pancakes Recipes

APPLE-CINNAMON PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the milk, sugar, vanilla and eggs together in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Let cool slightly, then whisk the butter into the egg mixture; reserve the skillet for cooking the pancakes. Whisk the flour mixture into the milk mixture until combined with a few lumps. Grate the apple on the large holes of a box grater and stir into the batter.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Drop 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the hot skillet. Cook until the surface of the batter forms bubbles and the edges are set, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until puffed in the center, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a baking sheet and put in the oven to keep warm while making the rest of the pancakes. Cook the remaining batter, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter as needed.
• Serve the pancakes with butter and maple syrup or honey.

APPLE-CINNAMON QUINOA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In another bowl, whisk together egg, egg white, almond milk, syrup, canola oil and vanilla. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Stir in apple and quinoa., In a large nonstick skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto griddle; cook until bubbles on top begin to pop and bottoms are golden brown. Turn; cook until second side is golden brown.

APPLE CINNAMON KEFIR PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place kefir, olive oil, vanilla, oats, and grain in blender and blend for 3 minutes on high. Make sure it is making a vortex. Add more liquid if needed.
• Cover and soak on the counter for at least 7 hours, to help the nutrients to be released. You may skip this step, if needed.
• Just before baking, add egg, melted butter and honey and blend until smooth.
• Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and apple and blend briefly.
• Bake on a hot griddle, lightly sprayed with non-stick spray as needed.
• Serve with syrup, powdered sugar, or caramel sauce (esp. yummy!)
• Makes 12 four-inch pancakes.

APPLE AND CINNAMON OATMEAL PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together 1 cup of the buttermilk and the oats and let the mixture stand for 15 minutes. In a large bowl whisk together the egg, the brown sugar, and the apple. Stir in the flours, the baking soda, the salt, the cinnamon, 2 tablespoons of the oil, the oats mixture, and the remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk and combine the batter well. Heat a griddle over moderate heat until it is hot enough to make drops of water scatter over its surface, brush it with the additional oil, and drop the batter by half-filled 1/4-cup measures onto it. Cook the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden and cooked through. Serve the pancakes with syrup.

FLUFFY KEFIR PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
• Break the egg into another bowl and lightly beat it. Then add the kefir, milk and vanilla extract and whisk them all together.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and whisk them together until combined. The batter should be a bit lumpy, but without any large pockets of flour.
• Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease and spoon on the batter - I used a 1/3 cup scoop, more or less full.
• When the surface has a fair number of bubbles, about 3-4 minutes, flip over and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
• Serve with your favorite toppings - I like a good jam, and maple syrup and fresh fruit are a natural, too.
