American pancakes with apple and salted caramel

Preparation

Core and thinly slice the large apples. Roughly chop the pecan nuts.

And the rest...

1. 1 Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and stir in the sugar. In a jug, whisk together the egg and milk. Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry, removing any lumps. Melt 2 tbsp of the butter and stir into the mixture.
2. 2 Heat a little of the remaining butter in a large, non-stick frying pan. Drop 4 tbsp of the batter into the pan, spacing them out, to make 4 pancakes.
3. 3 Cook over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles burst and stay open on the surface. Flip them and cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep warm. Repeat to make 12 pancakes in total.
4. 4 Warm the caramel sauce according to the instructions on the jar. Stack 3 pancakes on each serving plate and top with apple slices. Spoon over the sauce and scatter with the pecan nuts.
