Healthy apple pancakes

A healthy breakfast can really set you up for the day! So why don’t you try these delicious, healthy apple pancakes, which are made with oats, cinnamon and sultanas? Here I used gluten-free flour and oatmeal but you can use normal wheat flour, if gluten is not an issue for you. Also, instead of sultanas, you can use other dried fruits -  such as chopped apricots, blueberries, cherries and cranberries. I served it with Greek yoghurt mixed with maple syrup, but you can serve it with a fruit compote, honey or agave syrup drizzled on top, if you like!
