Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour1 tbsp baking powder

Bircher pancakes with caramelised apple offer a delightful twist on traditional pancakes, combining the hearty goodness of oats with the sweet allure of caramelized apples. This recipe is perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch, providing a balanced mix of flavors and textures that will satisfy your taste buds and keep you energized throughout the day.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, oats, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar.
- In another bowl, beat together the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla extract, and the melted 1/4 cup of butter until well combined.
- Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Preheat a non-stick griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, another 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate and cover to keep warm. Continue cooking the remaining batter.
- In a large skillet, melt the additional 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat.
- Add the additional 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the melted butter. Stir constantly until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is bubbly.
- Add the sliced apples to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelised, about 10-15 minutes.
- Stir in the chopped pecans and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the pecans are toasted.
- Stack pancakes on plates and generously spoon the caramelised apple mixture over the top.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Bircher Pancakes with Caramelised Apple!
Tips:
- Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start; this helps in achieving a smoother batter and consistent cooking.
- Use a non-stick pan or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet to avoid the pancakes sticking and to achieve an even, golden-brown color.
- Keep the heat moderate to avoid burning the pancakes. Slow and steady cooking ensures they are cooked through without becoming overly dark on the outside.
- For the caramelised apples, stir them continuously to prevent burning and to ensure they get evenly coated and cooked.
- You can toast the pecans lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the batter for an extra layer of flavor.
These Bircher pancakes with caramelised apple are a wholesome and indulgent treat that will make any breakfast special. With their delicious combination of creamy oats, sweet and tangy apples, and crunchy pecans, they provide a satisfying start to the day. Enjoy them fresh off the griddle, topped with your favorite syrup or a dollop of yogurt, and share the joy with family and friends.
