Ingredients
Easy Bramley Apple Pancakes
- 500 ml milk
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 bramley apples peeled and coarsely grated
- 400 g wholewheat self-raising flour (See Note 1)
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
- Oil or butter for frying
Maple Roasted Pecan Nuts
- 100 g pecan nuts
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup plus extra for drizzling
Instructions
- Mix together the milk, eggs, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, 3 teaspoons of cinnamon and the grated bramley apple in a jug. Place the flour in a bowl. Slowly stir the wet ingredients into the flour, using a whisk or fork to avoid lumps.
- Turn your oven on to 120C / 100C fan / gas mark ½ / 250F. Put your pecan nuts in a small roasting tin and drizzle over the 4 tablespoons of maple syrup. Stir to coat the pecans in the syrup and then pop in the warming oven for 15 minutes. Put a plate in the warming oven too.
- Put a small frying pan on a medium heat, drizzle in a teaspoon of oil (or a small knob of butter) and leave for 1 minute to come up to temperature.
- Place roughly 2 tablespoons of mixture into your frying pan - spread out to a 10cm / 4 inch circle with the back of your spoon. Fry for about 1 minute, until it bubbles on top, and then flip it over and cook for about 30 seconds on the other side. When the pancake is cooked, pop it on the plate in the oven and repeat the process until you have used up all the batter. This amount of mixture should make about 16 pancakes.
- After the pecan nuts have been in the oven for about 15 minutes, remove them from the oven and carry on making your pancakes.
- Serve the pancakes topped with the maple roasted pecans and drizzled with more maple syrup.

Notes
- I prefer the taste of wholemeal self-raising flour in this recipe. However, if you are not a fan of brown flour, you can use white self-raising flour (or white plain (all purpose) flour with 2 teaspoons of baking powder).
- Suitable for freezing.
