Apple Pancakes

Makes 8 small pancakes

1 egg
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup whole milk
3 heaping TBSP flour
1 Apple, peeled & cored, preferably Granny Smith or Cortland
Vegetable oil for frying

Using a fork or small whisk, beat egg with sugar in a medium bowl. Mix in the milk and then the flour.
Coarsely grate the peeled and cored apple. Add the apple to the batter mixture.
You are looking for a thick but pourable consistency, so adjust the flour and milk accordingly.
In a large saute pan, heat about 1/8" worth of oil over medium heat. When hot, add a large tablespoon of the batter mixture and gently fry until golden brown, turning once, approximately 5 - 7 minutes total cooking time.
Allow to cool slightly and serve with fruit preserves or jam.
