Instructions

Stir the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together in a small bowl.

Put the apple purée, maple syrup, egg, milk and butter into the work bowl fitted with the steam blade. Process the ingredients on chop for about 5 seconds.

Sprinkle the dry ingredients evenly over the wet ingredients in the work bowl. Pulse on chop until ingredients are just combined, about 5 pulses.

Put the remaining butter in a large nonstick skillet and place over medium heat. Once butter melts add the batter into the hot skillet, one tablespoon per pancake, to make silver dollar pancakes.

Cook pancakes about 2 minutes on the first side and 1 minute the second.
