Cinnamon Apple Pancakes

I love eating sweet things for breakfast-french toast, waffles, pancakes… While I prefer to add chocolate chips, some days I feel like getting a start on my daily servings of fruit and I will either add fruit as a topping (strawberries on waffles…MMM) or chop some up into the pancakes. What I love most about this cinnamon apple pancake recipe are the hints of cinnamon and nutmeg spices. I haven’t tried these with whole wheat flour, but next time I make them I think I will try it!
