Fluffy American-style pancakes with some cinnamon butter caramel apple bites scattered through the batter. Drizzled with honey and extra cinnamon right before serving. They can be thrown together in about 15-20 minutes and they'll make you think twice about skipping breakfast in the future. :)

Ingredients (serves 2-3):
- 200 g flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 200 ml milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 large green apple (or two smaller ones)
- 1 slice of butter
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- butter or oil for frying (butter works wonders for the flavor in this particular case)
- honey and extra cinnamon to serve
First make the apple bites. Core the apple(s) and chop them into cubes. Put them in a small pan with the butter, sugar and cinnamon:
Let them cook on medium heat until caramelized, about 5 minutes (stirring once in a while).
Meanwhile make the batter. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the egg and milk and mix well until even. When the apples are done, add them to the batter:
Mix to incorporate. Heat oil or butter in a pan (maybe even the same pan, if you want) and drop large spoonfuls of batter into it:
Fry the pancakes for about 3 minutes, then flip them over and fry the other side for 2 minutes more. Repeat for the remaining batter.
Transfer to serving plates, drizzle with honey and sprinkle with extra cinnamon to taste and dig in! :)
