Very thick and fluffy, made with eggs, yogurt, fresh apples, organic cane sugar, and cinnamon - these Apple Pancakes have been in my family for generations!

I cannot think of a better breakfast to enjoy on a crisp, fall/winter morning. Soft, fluffy, filled with tender apples and topped with warm apple jam, these pancakes are filling my heart with coziness and my stomach with joy. Don't hesitate for another minute, and give Mom's Apple Pancakes a try!
One of my favorite childhood memories is my mom cooking these pancakes in the kitchen, with all of us gathered around her and grabbing the hot cakes from the plate while she was still cooking. I loved the cinnamon smell, the sweet taste, and the soft texture. As I grew up, I learned how to make them myself using a few simple ingredients.
Try getting some sweet, soft apples for the best results. They soften even more while cooking and create a very nice texture.
Once you've got some fresh apples and great sugar, let's start cooking!
1. To prepare the topping, place the apple pieces and cane sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
2. Whisk together the yogurt and baking soda.
3. Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the sugar, cinnamon, egg, and yogurt mixture. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
4. Gently fold in the apple pieces.
5. Using a ½ cup as a measure, scoop the pancake batter onto the pan, then gently spread it into a flat circle, about ½ inch thick. Fry on medium-low heat for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
6. As the pancakes are ready, garnish them with the apple topping and a little honey. Serve hot.
And now, these wholesome, tasty, and oh-so addictive pancakes are ready to be enjoyed! Grab a cup of your favorite coffee and a big fork, and start your morning off right!
