Whisk together your dry ingredients in a large bowl.
In another bowl, mix the egg, milk, vanilla and apples all together.
If you haven't already, get your griddle preheating at this point.
Make a well into the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture in. Mix them together until they are just combined and they are ready to go!
These pancakes do take a little work to be spread out to cook, but it's worth it in the end. They will bubble a little bit on top like normal pancakes, but that's not how you can tell they are done. Watch for the edges to look cooked, and then that's when to flip.
