- Yields:
-
2 apples
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 2 large apples, peeled in alternating ribbons stem to stern (vertically)
- 1 cup dark buckwheat flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 teaspoons ground flax seeds
- 1⁄4 cup pure apple cider (not alcoholic)
- 2 tablespoons dark amber maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon canola oil or 1 tablespoon coconut oil, for cooking
- dark amber maple syrup, for serving (optional)
directions
- Using a mandoline, slice each apple into even, thin rings (I suggest no more than 4-5mm thick). Place into a bowl of lemon water to stop browning while preparing the batter.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon and flaxseed.
- Add the apple cider and maple syrup and whisk to make a smooth batter.
- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium-low heat and add the oil.
- Pat apple slices dry and dip in the batter, evenly coating both sides.
- Add to the hot pan and cook until batter is crisp on the underside and the apple is halfway cooked, about 5 minutes.
- Flip slices and cook on the other side until the batter is crispy and the apple is fork-tender.
- Serve immediately with a drizzle of syrup if desired.

<p>Montessori teacher, nutritionist and pastry chef: baking is my passion, but teaching the value of good food to whole families is close to my heart too! I have a passion for re-instilling the love of good-quality, home-made and mostly healthy food into the hearts and kitchens of children and their families today. I believe that any ?homemade? food, even when labelled as naughty, is a more wholesome treat than pre-packaged, cookie-cutter junk.</p>
