Instructions

  1. Prepare the apples

    Peel the apples, remove the core and dice them about 1 cm.

    Time: PT5M

  2. Caramelize the apples

    Heat the saucepan over medium heat, add the apple dice, maple syrup and cinnamon. Stir regularly for 10 minutes until the apples are tender and lightly golden.

    Time: PT10M

  3. Let cool

    Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the caramelized apples cool to room temperature.

    Time: PT10M

  4. Separate the eggs

    In two separate bowls, separate the egg whites from the yolks.

    Time: PT2M

  5. Mix the dry ingredients

    In a bowl, combine the T55 flour, semi‑whole wheat flour, baking powder and coconut blossom sugar. Whisk to homogenize.

    Time: PT2M

  6. Incorporate the yolks and milk

    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, pour in the egg yolks and 3/4 of the milk. Mix gently, then add the remaining milk until a smooth batter forms.

    Time: PT3M

  7. Add the cooled apples

    Weigh 90 g of cooled caramelized apples and fold them gently into the batter.

  8. Whip the egg whites

    Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

    Time: PT5M

  9. Fold in the whites

    Add the whipped whites to the batter and fold them in gently with a spatula, lifting the mixture to avoid deflating them.

  12. Serve

    Stack the pancakes, drizzle with the remaining caramelized apples and, if desired, a drizzle of maple syrup.

    Time: PT1M
