  • 100ml maple syrup

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Serves 2

  • Preparation: 30 minutes

  1. Peel two of the Kanzi® apples and remove the core with a corer. Cut the apples horizontally in thin slices to form rings.
  2. Remove the mint leaves from the sprigs. Keep a few good leaves for later and cut the rest into thin strips.
  3. Sieve the self-raising flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a mixing bowl.
  4. Melt the butter on a low heat. Make sure that it doesn’t become too hot.
  5. Mix the egg, half of the butter and 100ml of the milk with the flour. Stir with a large spoon until it becomes a thick batter. Flatten any lumps against the side of the bowl with the spoon. Stir in the rest of the milk.
  6. Melt a little bit of the remaining butter in a frying pan and add three dollops of the batter. Shape them with the convex side of the spoon into discs of approx. 8 – 10cm. Push an apple ring into the batter. Cook the pancakes for 5 min. turning them half way through. Continue until all the batter has been used up. If required, you can keep the cooked pancakes warm at approx. 80°C.
  7. Pile the pancakes up on plates with the Kanzi® slices between them. Pour maple syrup over the piles and garnish them with the mint leaves you held back.
