Apple Cinnamon Pancakes {Recipe}

I needed to come up with a recipe that:

1 – Hid a fruit or vegetable in there

2 – Used apples since we had so many after we went apple picking!

So, I figured I’d make some apple cinnamon pancakes for the girls. They love pancakes and it was something sweeter, so how could they resist?

You'll need:
A few apples
Pancake mix
Cinnamon
Vanilla extract (optional)
Tablespoon sugar (optional)

First, I peeled the skin off of the apples, and cut them into smaller pieces.

I stuck them into my food processor to get the apples super small.  Another alternative is just putting some applesauce in there (I've done that too).
I use pre-made pancake mix (it's easier and makes yummy pancakes) so I mix that with water to make the amount I want. Add your apples or applesauce next.  Then add some cinnamon, vanilla extract, and sugar to your liking.  I'm not much on measuring, but don't worry - you really can't mess this up!

You can even add chunks of banana or chocolate chips into the pancakes to make things even more fun :)

Place on the griddle and enjoy! My girls ate these right up - I think they each had 3.  I hope you like them as much as we did!
