Apple Crisp Pancakes with Streusel Topping Recipe (2024)

When I saw this idea of adding a streusel topping over the pancakes I really wanted to give them a try. Apples are one of my family favorites so these Apple Crisp Pancakes sounded like a wonderful healthy delicious treat.

I must say these apple crisp pancakes are the best pancakes I have ever made. They’re incredibly fluffy and bursting with flavor, thanks to the tender apple chunks folded into the batter. But what truly takes them over the top is that crispy streusel topping. The sugar gets caramelized as they cook and adds a perfect crunch. With their fantastic texture and mouthwatering taste, I can already tell these pancakes will be a repeat on my breakfast menu.

Next time you’re in the mood for pancakes, I highly recommend giving this delicious recipe a try. They’re so tasty that you could enjoy them on their own, no need for maple syrup or whipped cream, though adding those toppings would certainly take them to the next level of temptation.

How to make apple crisp pancakes

Begin by preparing the streusel. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, oats, and cinnamon. Use a pastry blender or fork to cut in the butter until the mixture is crumbly. Set aside.

Next, prepare the pancake batter. In another bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the egg, milk, and oil, and mix until smooth.

Peel and dice the apple, then fold it into the pancake batter.

Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Sprinkle each pancake evenly with 2 tablespoons of the streusel mixture, gently pressing it into the batter. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to dry. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, or until they are light golden brown on both sides.

Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup, honey, or topped with whipped cream for a delicious breakfast treat.
