Whole Wheat Apple Jaggery Pancakes

1In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour (1 cup), baking powder (1 teaspoon), salt (¼ teaspoon), and cinnamon (if using).

2In another bowl, mix the grated apple (1 large), milk (1 cup), and jaggery (¼ cup) until well combined.

3Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

4Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little oil or butter.

5Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

6Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

7Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.

8Serve warm with additional jaggery (¼ cup) or syrup if desired.
