Ingredients
Cinnamon Apple Pancakes with Blueberries and Cream
- Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 5 ozs Whole wheat flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 ¼ cups
- 2 large Apple
- 1 lb Sour cream
- 2 Tbsps sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 9 ozs Blueberries
- 3 Tbsps Canola oil
Whisk eggs in a bowl and gradually stir in flour and salt. Add 3/4 cup milk and continue stirring until a thick batter forms.
Rinse apples, wipe dry, cut into quarters and remove cores. Finely grate apple quarters on a box grater and mix into batter.
Beat sour cream with remaining milk, sugar, and cinnamon until creamy. Rinse blueberries and drain. Set aside 1-2 tablespoons blueberries and fold remaining berries into pancake batter.
Coat a non-stick pan (approximately 9 1/2 inches in diameter) with a little oil and heat. Ladle batter into center and bake on medium heat until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and bake the other side for 2 minutes.

Coat pan with remaining oil and portion batter in the same manner to bake remaining pancakes. Stack pancakes and spread with the sour cream mixture until all ingredients are used up.
Top pancake stack with sour cream mixture, sprinkle with the reserved blueberries and serve.
