Put down the pumpkin spice people! It’s apple season….I have another great apple recipe that’s perfect for the beginning of fall. These are perfect for a slow weekend morning or make ahead of time to pop in the toaster for a snack or quick breakfast before the school bus. My kids ask for these a lot!

These pancakes are made with Einkorn flour – low-gluten alternative. It’s an unhybridized, organic wheat that bakes very well with any recipe you can throw at it. It makes velvety smooth and fluffy pancakes. I like Jovial brand which can be found on Thrive Market or sometimes at Whole Foods or The Fresh Market.

You can make these non-dairy by using almond milk and melted coconut oil instead of milk and butter.

The cinnamon butter takes it up a notch. Swerve with maple syrup, or my favorite, Choc Zero low carb syrup!

Enjoy!

Equipment

Ingredients

  

• 2 cups Einkorn flour
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 3 Tbsp sweetener of choice I use Lakanto monk fruit sweentener
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Cinnamon Butter

• 4 Tbsp butter, softened
• 1 Tbsp sugar or sugar alternative like Monk Fruit

Notes

Directions:

Make the cinnamon butter:  Mix the ingredients together in a small bowl, scrape onto some wax paper or plastic wrap.  Roll into a log shape and refrigerate to harden.

Heat skillet or griddle to medium OR 350º.  Mix all dry ingredients together in large bowl.  Add in butter, egg, vanilla, applesauce – then milk, adding more milk until you get a pour-able batter consistency that’s not too runny.  Ladle on to the griddle one or a few at a time. 

Decorate each tasty pancake with a pat of cinnamon butter.

Enjoy!
