Set a large skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is heated, add a small piece of butter (or a small dollop of coconut oil) and swirl to coat the pan. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to pour circles of batter onto the skillet. Cook until the underside of each pancake is golden brown and bubbles begin to form on top. Flip pancakes and cook for another minute or two until the second sides are golden brown.

Serve pancakes immediately with apples. Light syrup and peanut butter can also be served on top.
