Apple Cinnamon Buckwheat Pancakes

Okay, figured if I'm going to go down the pancake path, I'm going to take the scenic route and this is what I came up with.

Whipped these tasty cakes up for a Breakfast-for-Dinner treat at the GPP.*

Apple Cinnamon Buckwheat Pancakes

1-1/4 cup buckwheat flour
2 tbsp. Sugar in the Raw
1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
4 tbsp. butter, melted
1 cup apples, peeled, cored and chopped

Mix together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt, then set aside.

Whisk together the milk, egg and melted butter.  Pour mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Fold in chopped apples.

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.

Add a dollop of butter to the hot pan and then drop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet (1/4 cup per pancake).

Cook on one side until bubbles form, then flip and continue cooking until pancake is golden brown.

Serve up with some butter and syrup and you have a good time.
