Ingredients

Roasted Apples:

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

2 tablespoons maple syrup, plus more for serving, optional

3 large Jonagold or Gala apples (or a combination of both), peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices

Oatmeal Pancakes:

1 1/2 cups rolled oats

1 cup buttermilk

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

4 eggs

1 1/2 cups milk

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Canola oil or melted butter

Directions

  1. For the apples: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, toss the apples with the cinnamon, nutmeg and maple syrup. Place the apples in a 9-inch glass baking dish, pour the syrup mixture over and roast until caramelized and soft, stirring a few times, about 30 minutes.
  2. For the pancakes: Combine the oats and buttermilk in a medium bowl and let sit for at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
  3. Stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl until combined.
  4. Whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth, and then stir in the oat mixture. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and mix until just combined (can be lumpy). Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
  5. Place a nonstick griddle or nonstick frying pan over medium heat and brush with oil or melted butter. Pour the batter in scant 1/4 cup portions onto the griddle and cook until pancakes are browned on the bottom and the edges begin to look dry, about 2 minutes. Carefully turn over with a spatula and cook another 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Repeat. Serve immediately topped with the roasted apples and more maple syrup if desired.

Only tried the pancake portion of this recipe. Oatmeal pancakes are always a little heavier than regular ones, but these were the best I have ever made. Texture and taste very good. Worth every step!
