Moist fluffy pancakes are easier to make than you may think. Skip the shake mix, these take only minutes to whip up. With shredded apple, a dash of cinnamon, a sprinkle of powdered sugar and a drizzle of warm maple syrup, this is the way the mornings were meant to be spent.
Pancakes are the ultimate morning treat in my house. Upon hearing that the area is expecting more snow mixed with ice, a batch of these pancakes were a sunny bright spot to the day.
Hopefully this year Spring will make an early appearance!

Catherine, Those apple pancakes look terrific! You need to invite me over so I can clean up a stack of those beauties. I don't get pancakes at home as my better half just doesn't care for them... Sad... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

We haven't had a good snowy day here for quite a while. Pancakes would be the perfect breakfast though, for a nice lazy pajama morning. I make pancakes mostly for my grandson, who LOVES them better than any other breakfast food. These apple ones look delicious- he would definitely approve of them! 🙂

For the life of me I haven't been able to shake this chill all day, Catherine. But, after seeing your pancakes, I do believe I'll be warming up just thinking about them:)
Hope you farie this next storm "quietly" we're expecting a lot more snow. I need to whip up some pancakes!!!

Dear Catherine,
I know where I am going for breakfast...Catherine's place...Wow, these look amazing! It is so true pancakes makes me smile as well. It brings back memories of my dad. He is the pancake maker. When we were young he always made us pankcakes on the weekend. He would make these little ones like the size of a quarter, and my brothers and I would fight over them. My dad made plenty and they were very fluffy just like yours. Never had the apple mixed in but I love the idea. Your photo is so beautiful. it could be in a magazine. Thank you for sharing this delicious breakfast dish. Hope that you have a blessed week ahead.
Dottie 🙂

Catherine,
This is just the recipe I was looking for this morning.
My only improvement would be to list the servings it makes. While this might be subjective information per household, a standard amount made would allow an informed decision by the gatekeeper of the house.
