Ingredients
For the Pancakes:
- 1 ½ cups Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 Baking Flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 ½ cups buttermilk (full-fat or low-fat)
- 2 large eggs
- 6 tbsp butter (melted)
- 1/2-3/4 cup Granny Smith apple (diced to 1/4")
For the Streusel:
- ¾ cup gluten free quick cook oats
- 3 tbsp light brown sugar
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp butter (melted)
Toppings:
- 1 medium Granny Smith apple (cored & diced to 1/4")
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tsp water, milk or apple juice (*just enough to dissolve the sugar)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon with a fork until uniform in color.
- In a medium mixing bowl, beat the buttermilk and egg together until uniform in color.
- Whisk the flour mixture into the buttermilk mixture until no lumps remain.
- Incorporate the melted butter making sure that there are no more streaks of oil, then add in the diced apple. Set aside while you make the Streusel & Icing.
For the Streusel:
- In a small bowl, combine the oats, sugar and cinnamon. Drizzle in the melted butter and stir to combine well. Set aside.
For the Icing:
- In a small bowl combine just enough apple juice, milk or water with the powdered sugar to create a thick glaze. Stir to remove the lumps. If it is too thin, add more sugar until you get the right consistency. Set aside.
To Make the Apple Streusel Pancakes:
- Heat a large griddle or frying pan to medium heat.
- Ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle as usual making pancakes approximately 4-5 inches in diameter.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the Streusel on top of the wet batter while one side browns.
- Flip the pancakes and allow the other sides to brown. Work in batches until all of the batter is used.
- You can keep pancakes warm in a 200 degree oven on a baking sheet. Serve with diced apple and a generous drizzle of icing.
