Ingredients




Pancakes:
2 cups self-rising flour
2 eggs - beaten
3 tablespoons butter – melted
2 cups milk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
Sour cream
For the Lemon-Vanilla Apples:
2 large apples – peeled and sliced
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
Zest of one lemon
Juice of half (large) lemon
2 tablespoons butter

Preparation

1 Pancakes: 2 Place the flour and sugar in a large bowl. Combine the beaten eggs with the milk and vanilla; add the cooled butter to the milk and stir. 3 Make a well in the center of the flour and add the milk combination. The batter will be lumpy. If the batter is too thick add a little milk at a time to get a thinner consistency. 4 Let the batter rest for a minute or two while heating the griddle. Place a pat of butter on a heated cast iron pan or griddle. Do not let the pan get too hot or the butter will burn! Flip the pancakes when little holes start to form. 5 For the Lemon-Vanilla Apples: 6 In a small bowl zest and juice the lemon and add the sugar and apples and toss. Heat a small pan and add the butter. Add the apple mixture and heat. Briskly stir the sour cream. 7 Top the pancakes with the sour cream, lemon- vanilla apples and syrup.
