Ingredients
- 2 Apples (medium size, small dice or grated)
- 1 Large Egg
- 3 tbsp White Sugar (Caster Sugar)
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 185 g Plain Flour
- 125 ml Milk (at room temperature, not straight from the fridge)
- ½ Lemon (Juice Only) (omit if apples are very sour)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 3 tbsp Veg Oil (for frying)
- 2 tbsp Icing Sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the diced apples with the juice of half a lemon. Set aside until later. Skip the lemon juice if the apples are already sour enough.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk 1 egg and 3 tbsp of sugar until pale yellow, which should take around 2 minutes.
- Add 1 tsp of baking powder, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, the plain flour and the milk. Whisk the mixture until it's smooth and free of lumps. If the batter seems too thick, add 20ml more milk. Keep in mind that higher protein flour absorbs more liquid.
- Fold in the diced apples and mix them into the batter. (Alternatively you can grate them instead for different texture)
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat with 1 tbsp of oil. Add 2 tbsp of pancake mix to the pan, and spread it slightly into the desired shape. Fry the pancake on each side for around 2 minutes. If the pancake browns too quickly, turn down the heat.
- Once the pancakes are cooked, dust them with icing sugar, and enjoy your delicious Polish apple pancake (Racuchy z Jabłkami) Smacznego!
