Ingredients
Pancake
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1 cup homemade applesauce topping (special ingredients)
Apple Sauce Topping
- 5-6 pounds apples, peeled & cored
- ¾ cup water
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ – 1 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Peel and core apples. Roughly chop into 1-inch pieces.
- Place prepared apples into a large stock pot along with water, cinnamon, vanilla and salt. Bring apples to a boil and reduce to simmer.
- As the apples cook down, the mixture will begin to naturally thicken. Using the backside of a wooden spoon, mash the apples every few minutes to help the reduction and thickening process.
- After the applesauce is almost to the stage of serving, check for sweetness. Stir in ½ – 1 cup brown sugar, based on sweetness preference.
- Cook for 3-5 minutes more and set aside to prepare sundae.
- In medium bowl, sift together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- In large bowl, mix together egg, applesauce and milk.
- Slowly combine the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Let batter sit for 3-5 minutes.
- Heat skillet or griddle and spoon about ¼ batter for each pancake. Cook on each side until golden brown in color.
- Top with Velvet Vanilla Bean ice cream and homemade applesauce topping.
