How to Make Apple And Hazelnut Pancakes

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (or 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour), ¼ cup flaxseed meal, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ⅓ cup granulated sugar.
2. Create a well in the center. Add 1 large egg and gradually whisk in 1 cup buttermilk until a smooth batter forms. Adjust buttermilk for desired consistency.
3. Gently fold in 1 medium apple, peeled, cored, and diced, and ½ cup chopped hazelnuts.
4. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes while preheating your griddle.
5. Preheat a lightly oiled cast iron griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles on contact.
6. Lightly spray the griddle with cooking spray. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
8. Serve immediately with your favorite mixed berry sauce (recipe suggestion: combine 1 cup mixed berries, 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, and a squeeze of lemon juice in a small saucepan and simmer until thickened) and a drizzle of warmed maple syrup.
