Instructions

  • Whisk dry ingredients and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together egg, milk, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, sugar and vanilla until fully combined.
  • Add dry to wet and stir until just combined.
  • Add chopped apple and fold together until combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a nonstick pan over medium high heat. Use butter, oil or nonstick spray to lightly grease pan.
  • Use a ladle or ice cream scoop to measure out pancakes. Cook until brown on both sides.
  • Smear cinnamon butter onto pancakes and top with granola and maple syrup.
  • Add softened butter, honey, cinnamon and salt to a medium sized bowl. Use an electric hand mixer to whip the butter until light and fluffy. Transfer to a jar with a lid and place in the fridge until you are ready to use. Remove from the fridge before using to allow it to soften slightly.

Notes

If the cinnamon butter separates, do not be concerned. You can re-whip it using your hand mixer.
