Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups cake flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups milk, plus more if needed
2 cups Applesauce, recipe follows
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 eggs
Butter, for cooking and serving
Maple syrup, warmed, for serving
6 pounds mixed apple varieties (Gala, Honeycrisp, Golden Delicious), peeled, cored and cut into eighths
1 cup apple juice or water
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the cake flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir together and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, Applesauce, vanilla, cinnamon and eggs. Slowly drizzle the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spoon as you go. Once combined, if the mixture needs more moisture, splash in a little more milk. The batter should be pourable.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low to low heat. Smear a little bit of butter over the surface and drop tablespoon-sized amounts of batter onto the pan (more if you want larger pancakes). Wait a minute or so, then flip to the other side. The pancakes should be light golden brown and set in the middle.
  • Top with butter and drizzle with warm maple syrup.
  • Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
  • Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.
