Apples make these little whole-grain pancakes extra special. They taste very good with other fruits or berries as well, whatever is in season. Just adjust the sweetener if you’re using not-so-sweet fruits or berries.
Friday is our breakfast-for-supper day. Our kids just love pancakes and co so much that we decided to have a day where we eat it for supper. That way I am not hearing wishes about having crepes or kaiserschmarrn every day :).
We like to make the apple pancakes small, that’s why I call them little. They are easier to turn that way.
Make 3-4 little pancakes per pan, and cook over medium heat until golden brown on each side.
The recipe makes about 30 Pancakes. Enjoy!

Looks yummy! I would be making these gluten-free – I’d bet they’d be good!
I am sure they would. I haven’t tried this recipe gluten free though.
These look so good, Anna. I haven`t had pancakes in years mostly because I haven`t found a healthy way to do them but these look great. I love the addition of apple. Visiting from Let`s Get Real Friday – so nice to find your beautiful blog!
Welcome here Robyn! Yes pancakes can be made healthy too. Enjoy!
