Apple pancakes
2 servings
30 minutes
Apple pancakes are a cozy, homemade treat known in Russian cuisine for many generations. Tender, airy, and slightly crispy at the edges, they combine the sweetness of apples with subtle vanilla notes and a hint of tartness. Traditionally made in the autumn season when apples were particularly fragrant, they are served with honey, jam or simply dusted with powdered sugar as a perfect complement to a cup of hot tea. The simplicity of the recipe makes it accessible for any occasion—be it a family breakfast or a cozy evening with loved ones. They not only satisfy hunger but also provide a sense of warmth and homeliness, evoking nostalgia for grandmother's kitchen.
