Seasonal Recipe: Apple Pie Pancakes

The kids are heading back to school, summer is coming to a close and before we know it the leaves will be changing.  With the crisper weather and apple season just around the corner, it’s a great time to try a new recipe and embrace the fabulous flavours of fall.  Most importantly, we want you to be able to enjoy those seasonal flavours without the heavy sugar rice tag that comes with many of the options you find out there. These delicious apple pie pancakes are not only low in fat, they’re gluten free, vegan (no eggs/dairy) and hella tasty.  Whip up a batch this long holiday weekend and this recipe will soon be a household favorite!

Pancake Mix:

2 cups rolled or quick oats

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

1 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp ground ginger

2 tbsp baking powder

2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tbsp raw Stevia

Topping:

1 small apple

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp nutmeg

Pancake Mix:

1) In a blender or food processor place all ingredients for pancakes. Blend until smooth then leave the mixture for 5 mins to thicken. Heat a non stick pan over medium heat (5-6 ish) and scoop 1/4 cup portions of batter (spray pan with coconut cooking spray if needed), spread slightly into rounds and cook for 2-3 mins a side or until cooked through (pressing slightly after flipping to flatten). Feel free to cover your pancake pan with a lid if you feel they aren’t cooked through to your liking. 1 Serving= 2 pancakes 🙂

Apple Pie Topping:

1) Chop the apple into small pieces and place in a small saucepan, cover with water and add in spices. Cook for 5 mins or until softened, drain. Top your pancakes with apple and sprinkle with more cinnamon because, I mean, who doesn’t love cinnamon?!
