Brie topped apple pancakes ( Apple cheese cake pancakes)

 Serves 2

Ingredients

2 apples washed skin on core removed ( can be shredded if you don't have a vitamixer)
2 eggs ( if watching calories or cholesterol you can use whites only) 
3 heaping tbsp. all purpose flour
1tsp. Pure vanilla extract
2 oz. Brie cut into 3 small wedges
Pure maple syrup

For cooking 
2 tbsp. olive oil

Vitamixer instructions

Place everything except flour in vitamixer
Set on 5
Use tamper and push down until all ingredients are puréed
Add flour and pulse 5-6 times until mixed well

Bowl mixing method

Place all ingredients in bowl and mix until ingredients are combined

Cooking on stove

Heat oil in non stick pan on medium heat ( I use a cast iron griddle on gas stove)
Heat pan / griddle until smoke comes off then turn to low heat

Scoop 1 heaping tbsp. of batter on pan/griddle for each pancake ( I use a ice cream scoop)
Cook for 1 - 2 minutes and flip cook other side
The pancake is cooked when you press down and the pancake springs back
Place on plate and immediately place 1 slice of Brie on each pancake while pancakes still hot
Top with pure maple syrup

Cooking in waffle maker
Use enough batter to cover waffle surface ( see waffle maker instructions for amount of batter required if not sure how much batter to use)
Cook until crispy ( most waffle makers have a green indicator light that identifies waffles are cooked)
I use a cuisinart single waffle maker
Remove waffle and place 3 Brie wedges on top and serve immediately
Top with maple syrup
