Spicy Apple Pancake With Apple Sauce



Apple:
Apples are crisp, white-fleshed fruits with red, yellow or green skin. They range in taste from moderately sweet and refreshing to pleasantly tart depending on the variety.

Pancakes:
Pancakes are a type of flat bread prepared from a sweet batter that is cooked on a hot griddle or in a oven. They can be made in different shapes. Pancakes are cooked one side at a time and flipped halfway through the cooking process to cook the other side of the pancake

Spicy Apple Pancake:
I call my pancakes spicy apple pancake because i mix cardamom and cinnamon powder. As we all know that apple and cinnamon marry very nicely together i used cinnamon with apple and i love cardamom in any sweet dish, so i used both of them in my pancake and so i named them as spicy apple pancake.
