Apples in a robe
Ingredients: * 3 apples * 100 g flour * 2 tablespoons melted butter * 100 ml slightly warm milk (or water) * 1 egg * 1 tablespoon sugar * a pinch of salt * vanilla powdered sugar * cinnamon powder (optional) * oil for frying
To prepare apple pancakes, we will start by making a delicious batter that is slightly thicker than usual. In a large bowl, we put the flour, add a pinch of salt to balance the taste, and the melted butter, which will add extra flavor and a softer texture to the pancakes. We continue by adding slightly warm milk, so the ingredients mix easily, and sugar, which will sweeten the batter. Using a whisk, we mix well until the composition becomes homogeneous. After achieving a uniform texture, we add the egg yolk, which will enrich the batter with nutrients and contribute to a better consistency.
In another bowl, we beat the egg white until it becomes firm and shiny, then we gradually incorporate it into the batter, mixing carefully so as not to deflate it. If we wish, we can add a dash of cinnamon powder to the batter or use it to sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the pancakes at the end, which will provide a special aromatic flavor. Once the batter is ready, we set it aside for a few minutes to allow the ingredients to blend perfectly.
Meanwhile, we take care of the apples. We peel the apples, remove the core, and slice them thinly, no more than 1 cm thick. If we want an extra flavor, we can drizzle them with a little rum and sprinkle sugar to caramelize them slightly during frying.
In a deep pan, we heat the oil, making sure it is hot enough to fry the apple slices. When the oil reaches the optimal temperature, we take the apple slices and dip them in the prepared batter, ensuring they are well coated. Then, we add them to the pan and fry on both sides until they become golden and crispy. After removing them from the pan, we place them on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
Finally, we sprinkle vanilla powdered sugar on top, which will give them an attractive appearance and a wonderful sweet taste. These apple pancakes are served warm, perfect for a lavish breakfast or a delicious dessert. The flavors blend perfectly, offering an unforgettable culinary experience that will surely delight everyone.
