Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.
- 2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a medium nonstick or cast-iron skillet. Whisk into the egg mixture and reserve the skillet for cooking the pancakes. Whisk the dry ingredients into the liquid mixture until it forms a thick, lumpy batter.
- 3. Core and grate the apple on the large holes of a box grater into a small bowl. Toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon flour. Add the caramel sauce and stir until the flour is absorbed. Stir into the batter until just combined.
- 4. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Drop 2 tablespoons batter per pancake into the hot skillet. Cook until the surface of the pancakes form bubbles and the edges are set, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until puffed in the center, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm while making the rest of the pancakes. Continue to make the pancakes, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter as needed, until all the batter is gone.
- 5. Serve the pancakes with a dollop of yogurt, whipped cream, or, for dessert, a scoop of ice cream. Drizzle with additional caramel sauce.

Steps:
- Combine diced apples and water in a microwave-safe dish for the sauce. Cover and microwave on high power for 3 minutes. Stir, replace cover, and microwave on high until apples are fork-tender, about 2 more minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Combine brown sugar, cream, butter, and salt in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes. Mixture should be bubbly all over the surface. Mix in vanilla extract and cook, stirring, for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cooked, drained apples.
- Preheat an electric griddle to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease.
- Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl.

- Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to pour batter in batches onto the preheated griddle, forming 6-inch pancakes.
- Cook until bubbles form on top of the pancakes and the surface begins to look a little dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Brown to desired doneness on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes. Keep first batch warm in a 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) oven, while the remaining pancakes cook.
- Serve a stack of 3 pancakes with caramelized apple sauce, and garnish with chopped, toasted walnuts.
