These fluffy apple cinnamon pancakes are a delightful twist on the classic breakfast favorite, featuring a hint of spice and the sweetness of fresh apples.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
Sift the dry ingredients together to ensure a smooth batter.
In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and sour cream.
Ensure the butter is slightly cooled to prevent cooking the egg.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Do not overmix; a few lumps in the batter are fine.
Fold in the grated apple gently.
Grate the apple just before adding to prevent browning.
Heat a lightly greased griddle over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
Use a ladle for consistent pancake sizes.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
Wait for the edges to set before flipping for easier handling.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup or fresh fruit.
Keep pancakes warm in a low oven while cooking the rest.
