Honey-Apple Pancakes

By SapphireBlu957

These pancakes are like breakfast apple pies--a well-deserved weekend treat.

Ingredients

• 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon apple pie spice
• 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 beaten egg
• 3/4 cup apple juice
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil
• Nonstick cooking spray
• Light or sugar-free pancake syrup (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a medium bowl stir together flour, baking powder, salt, apple pie spice, and baking soda. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; set aside. In a small bowl stir together egg, apple juice, honey, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture; stir just until combined, but still slightly lumpy.

2. Lightly coat a nonstick griddle or heavy nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle or skillet, spreading to 4-inch diameter if needed. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until pancakes have bubbly surfaces and edges are slightly dry. Turn pancakes; cook for 2 to 3 minutes more or until golden brown. If desired, serve with syrup. Makes eight 4-inch pancakes.
