These Polish Apple Pancakes are made with apples that are dipped into pancake batter, then fried and topped with powdered sugar or a sweet syrup!

Pancakes for breakfast is always a great idea! I would have pancakes every morning if I could for the rest of my life, especially when the pancakes are so special just like these apple pancakes. They’re so quick and easy to make, and absolutely delicious!

POLISH APPLE PANCAKES

This is my Mum’s recipe, it reminds me of my childhood and we still make it quite often. We usually add apples, but when we have a lot of pears we just add them to the pancakes. Peaches also work great when they’re not too juicy.

I don’t know Polish but someone told me that this recipe is called “racuchy z jabłkami”. It’s a traditional Polish recipe, where apples are dipped in pancake batter and fried!

***

But anyway here’s a brief Polish language lesson for you, as a friend explained to me:

Racuchy mean pancakes

Jabłkami mean apple

And Racuchy z jabłkami mean pancakes with apples

***

What I really love about these pancakes is that they’re crispy on the outside, sweet, and fluffy on the inside.

    delicious. only thing is for me is I thought it was time consuming. I also used a 1/4 cup instead of the 1/2 cup for the cooking process. over it was delicious. my hubby’s father was polish so I thought it would be a treat. he didn’t grow up with eating polish food.

    Just made these delicious pancakes, but just used 2 small apples. So easy and yum. Also added generous dash of cinnamon. Thanks for the recipe.

    Diana, thank you for sharing your recipe with us. I made these polish apple pancakes this morning and just like Teresa’s comment below, after the initial golden brown on both aides, the pancakes were still very wet inside. They took a long time to cook through. I think 5 shredded apples was way too much for 1 cup of flour. I looked for this recipe online and all of them suggested 1 to 1 1/2 size apples for the same amount of flour. I haven’t giving up on this recipe, I’m sure is delicious with the proper amounts. But thank you very much for inspiring me to make this recipe. I’ll try it next time with 1 1/2 apples.
