Instructions:

1. Grate the apple:
   Peel the apple if you prefer a smoother texture, then grate it using the large holes of a box grater. Gently squeeze out excess juice if the apple is very juicy.

2. Make the batter:
   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add the milk and mix well.
   Stir in the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon until smooth.
   Fold in the shredded apple.

3. Cook the pancakes:
   Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil.
   Drop spoonfuls of batter (about 1/4 cup each) onto the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

4. Serve warm:
   Enjoy your apple pancakes with maple syrup, yogurt, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
