Ingredients:

For the Pancake:

• 2 medium apples, diced
• 30 grams (2 tbsp) brown sugar
• 250 grams (2 cups) all-purpose flour
• 15 grams (1 tbsp) baking powder
• 9 grams (3 tsp) ground cinnamon
• 355 ml (1 1/2 cups) buttermilk
• 60 ml (1/4 cup) maple syrup
• 30 ml (2 tbsp) vegetable oil

For the Crumble:

• 30 grams (1/4 cup) all-purpose flour (heat-treated in oven at 175°C/350°F for 5 min)
• 25 grams (1/8 cup) brown sugar
• 28 grams (2 tbsp) unsalted butter, softened

For the Maple Drizzle:

• 60 grams (1/2 cup) powdered sugar
• 60 ml (1/4 cup) maple syrup
• 15 ml (1 tbsp) heavy cream

For the Brown Sugar Cinnamon Drizzle:

• 50 grams (1/4 cup) brown sugar
• 4 grams (2 tsp) ground cinnamon
• 28 grams (2 tbsp) unsalted butter, melted

Directions:

1. Toss the diced apples with brown sugar in a bowl and set aside.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Stir in the buttermilk, maple syrup, and vegetable oil until just combined. Gently fold in the sugared apples.
3. Heat a tablespoon of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Scoop 120 ml (1/2 cup) of pancake batter into the pan. Cook each pancake for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Continue until all the batter is used, making about 7 pancakes.
4. For the crumble, mix the heat-treated flour with brown sugar and softened butter using a fork until it resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the cooked pancakes.
5. Prepare the drizzles by mixing their respective ingredients in separate bowls until smooth.
6. Serve the pancakes warm, adorned with a generous amount of crumble and artistically drizzled with the sweet maple and brown sugar cinnamon toppings.
