The Willows Raised Apple Pancake Recipes

CHICK PEA PANCAKE

Steps:

• Mix egg, flour, milk, cumin and chick pea puree to a smooth batter. Adjust viscosity with additional milk or flour. Add virgin olive oil, parsley and coriander and whisk well. Preheat non-stick pans and place 3 inch pastry ring in each pan. Pour 1 ounce olive oil in each ring and proceed to make pancakes 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle currants on bubbling side and turn when brown. Brown evenly on both sides.

BABCOCK PEACH OR BRAEBURN APPLE PANCAKE TATINS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Place the first 4 ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and toss together. Let stand for at least 30 minutes.
• Drain the excess liquid from the fruit mixture and reserve. Melt half of the unsalted and clarified butter in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add half of the fruit mixture and brown for 3 minutes.
• Pour half of the pancake batter over the fruit starting from the center of the pan. Let batter set for about 3 minutes, and then place under the broiler for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Watch carefully the whole time, as it may brown more quickly. Remove from the oven. Place a large enough plate to cover the pan over the pan and invert onto the plate. Repeat with the second half of the fruit and batter.
• Garnish with powdered sugar and serve.

WHOLE-GRAIN CARAMEL APPLE OVEN PANCAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Blend the milk and eggs in a blender until thoroughly mixed. Add the flour, vanilla, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and lemon zest and blend again until combined, scraping down the sides if necessary, about 15 seconds. Cover the blender jar and refrigerate while cooking the apples.
• Melt the butter in a 10-inch nonstick oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the apples and sprinkle them with the granulated sugar. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the apples, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and softened, 20 to 25 minutes. Arrange the apples evenly in the skillet. Remix the batter to reincorporate the ingredients, then pour it over the apples.
• Bake the pancake until it is browned and set in the center and the sides have risen about 1 1/2 inches, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve directly from the skillet or use a large spatula to transfer the pancake to a plate. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
