00:01

Hello, this is Chef John from foodwishes.com with carrot apple pancakes.

00:08

That's right. I was eating a carrot apple salad and I thought to myself, "This is good, but I wish it was pancakes." So,

00:16

I headed back into the kitchen and I created what's basically a cross between carrot cake, apple fritters, and pancakes.

00:24

And they were every bit as good as that sounds. And to get started, we will peel and grate a carrot.

00:30

And if you're a beginner, make sure you do it in that order.

00:34

And we'll use our box grater with the side with the biggest holes so we get some decent size shreds. And as usual, don't be a hero.

00:42

When you get down to the end, stop grading and have yourself a little chef snack. Right. In the business, we call that stopping while you're ahead.

00:51

And once we have about one cup of grated carrot, we will head to the stove where we will melt some butter over mediumigh heat.

00:58

And once that happens, we will transfer in our carrot along with a nice pinch of salt.

01:03

And then we'll cook these stirring for a few minutes or until they've lost that raw crisp edge.

01:08

And by the way, you can make these with just raw grated carrots.
