Racuchy z Jablkami (Polish Apple Pancakes)

This recipe of pancakes, containing grated apples in the batter, is a staple in Polish homes and one of the most delicious ways to enjoy breakfast. Simple enough to make, ready in under 10-15 minutes total prep + cooking time. 
The recipe below is for the traditional Polish version. But as an extra tip, try adding 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract to the batter, it pairs beautifully with the apples & cinnamon.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 pinch salt
• 2 large apples - peeled, cored, and grated
• vegetable oil, or as needed, divided
• 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, or to taste

In a small bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, salt, baking powder and sugar.
In a larger bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla in a large bowl.
Combine with a mixing spoon or whisk. Gently fold in the grated apples and then the yogurt.

Lightly grease a large frying pan or griddle, and heat over medium heat. Drop large spoonfuls of batter onto the pan and flatten with a spatula. 

Cook until golden brown on the bottom, then flip and cook until done, about 2 minutes.
Serve immediately (with a light dusting of confectioners sugar, if desired). Keep extras warm in a warm oven.

It's done, dig in! :)
