Apple Slice Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 granny smith apple
• 1 1/4 cups pancake mix (any type)
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1 cup milk, 1% low-fat

‍ Instructions

1. Wash hands with soap and water.
2. Lightly coat a griddle or skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
3. Peel, core and thinly slice apple into rings.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine ingredients for pancake batter. Stir until ingredients are evenly moist. (Small lumps are ok! Over-mixing makes pancakes tough.)
5. For each pancake, place apple ring on griddle and pour about 1/4 cup batter over apple ring, starting in the center and covering the apple.
6. Cook until bubbles appear. Turn and cook other side until lightly brown.
