How to make it step-by-step

STEP 1: Prepare the apples: Peel the apples and remove the core (you can use an apple core cutter that is shown on the photo or a sharp thin knife). Cut into 1/3 inch (7 mm) slices, set aside.

STEP 2: Make pancake batter: Add the egg, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, honey, sugar, melted butter, milk to a large bowl, whisk together until combined.

Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice or gingerbread spice mix to the bowl, whisk until smooth (but don’t overmix the batter).

STEP 3: Dunk each apple ring in the batter, allowing the runoff to fall back into the bowl.

STEP 4: Cook the pancakes: Heat butter or clarified butter in a frying pan (preferably non-stick) over medium heat. Wait until bubbles form on a batter, then flip over. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden.

STEP 5: Sprinkle with powdered sugar (the pancakes should be slightly cooled) or with vanilla or cinnamon sugar (the pancakes should be warm). Enjoy!

Storing tips

These apple ring pancakes taste best fresh after cooking, they have delightful crispy edges, but can also be reheated on the next day. Reheat them over low heat in a non-stick pan, on both sides, until warm. You can warm them up without oil or just lightly brush the pan with butter.
