Buttermilk pancakes with apples cinnamon butter

April 28th, 2011
    Ingredients
  • 1kg apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup (55g) caster sugar
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) water
  • 1 tbs lemon juice
  • Ground cinnamon, to serve

  • Cinnamon butter

  • 100g butter, softened
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • Buttermilk pancakes

  • 2 1/2 cups (375g) self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbs caster sugar
  • 3 cups (750ml) buttermilk
  • 80g butter, melted, cooled
  • 1 egg, whisked

Method
Place apples, sugar, water and lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Cover and bake over medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes or until apples are tender but still hold their shape. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
To make cinnamon butter, use electric beaters to whip butter until pale. Beat in cinnamon.
To make pancakes, sift flour, cooking powder and sugar in a large bowl. Add buttermilk, butter and egg. Whisk until well combined.
Brush two small non-stick frying pans with a little of the extra melted butter. Heat over medium heat. Add 1/3 cup of mixture to each pan. Cook for two minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface. Carefully turn over and bake for 1 minute.
Transfer pancakes to a plate and wrap loosely in a clean tea towel to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing pan between each batch. If you find the pan is getting too hot, reduce heat slightly.
Serve pancakes with apples and cinnamon butter. Sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon.
