Ingredients  

For the Pancakes:

  • 1 ½ cups Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 Baking Flour
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ cups buttermilk - full-fat or low-fat
  • 2 large eggs
  • 6 tablespoon butter - melted
  • ½-3/4 cup Granny Smith apple - diced to ¼"

For the Streusel:

  • ¾ cup gluten free quick cook oats
  • 3 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon butter - melted

Toppings:

  • 1 medium Granny Smith apple - cored & diced to ¼"
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoon 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.
