Dessert - Mini apple pancakes by Paulica N. - Recipia

A cookie cutter gives these mini apple pancakes their shape. They’re fried in a batter made with soy milk. Soft fruit cubes show through inside, while the edges stay golden after browning in the pan. I cut the apples into even cubes, small enough to fit into each spoonful of batter. Prep: 15 minutes. Cook: 12 minutes. Rest: 30 minutes. Total: 57 minutes. Serves: 4.

Ingredients

200 g flour
10 g baking powder
400 ml soy milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 g vanilla sugar
2 medium apples (300 g)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
3 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon powdered sugar

Preparation

1. Mix the flour and baking powder in a bowl. 2. Peel the apples and cut them into small cubes. Add the soy milk, salt, vanilla sugar and apples to the bowl, then mix. 3. Add the grated orange zest and cinnamon, if using. Leave the batter to rest for 30 minutes. 4. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour in the batter in small portions, and use the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to grease the pan between batches. 5. Fry the pancakes for about 12 minutes in total, 2 minutes on each side, until golden. Cut them out with a cookie cutter and dust with powdered sugar.

Notes

You can serve them with whipped cream. For a simpler flavor, you can leave out the cinnamon and keep the orange zest. I left the batter to rest for 30 minutes, used only orange zest, no cinnamon, and cut the pancakes out with a cookie cutter. Choose firm apples without soft spots, and cut the cubes small so they fit easily into the portions of batter. The flour contains gluten, soy milk is an allergen, and whipped cream adds dairy. If you’re making them for a meal, fry them close to serving time. Store any leftover pancakes in the fridge for up to 3 days.
