Apple Cinnamon Pancakes

We had a really big bag of apples that were starting to go bad faster than we could eat them...so I thought why not try to make some apple cinnamon pancakes? They are my new favorite!

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 tbsp brown sugar (light or dark)
2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp oil
1 cup milk
2 apples - peeled and cut into small chunks

Combine all dry ingredients in mixing bowl and stir. Set aside. Combine apples and milk in microwave safe bowl and microwave on high 3 to 5 minutes - stirring every 60 seconds. The cook time depends on the size of the apple chunks and your desired crunch in the apple. I like them cooked but still with a little bite to it. Now combine cooked apples & milk with remaining ingredients into mixing bowl and stir. You may have to add a little more milk if the batter is too thick. It seemed like the longer I cooked the apples, the more milk I needed to add - usually another tablespoon or two, not too much. Then cook on griddle as usual and enjoy!
