ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¹⁄₂ cups whole wheat flour (or buckwheat)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¹⁄₄ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (optional)
¹⁄₈ teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)

2 tablespoons maple syrup or 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 ¹⁄₂ cups shredded apples (about 2 large)

directions

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Whisk remaining ingredients, in order given, in a separate bowl.
Pour wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined - a few lumps should remain.
Melt a thin layer of butter in a large nonstick skillet; scoop about 1/3 cup batter per pancake into skillet.
Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles break in batter but don't fill in; turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer or until the pancakes are golden & puffed.
Repeat with remaining batter, adding butter as required and adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Serve the classic way with butter & maple syrup or yogurt sweetened with maple syrup.

In the words of Tracy Byrd, "I'm from the country & I like it that way"!! On May 1, 2008 my husband and I started a new adventure. We'll be living in a 37 foot RV while our new home is under construction. Its out in the country on a dead end dirt road with lots of trees. For the next 4 months or so, most meals will be cooked on the BBQ and life will be full of challenges! We love spending quality time with our friends & family - especially the grandkids!! The photo is 4 generations - my 84 year old mother, myself, my daughter & my youngest granddaughter - taken at the end of 2006. I've participated in many contests & events here on Zaar but this is the first banner that I've posted. My thanks to Dreamgoddess for hosting the contest & SusieD for the banner design! <img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f249/Dreamgoddess555/Narrow1-1.jpg">
