APPLESAUCE PANCAKES WITH CARAMEL APPLE TOPPING

I love pancakes but I am always too rushed during the week to be able to whip up a batch. So, I try to treat myself to a batch on the weekends. And since we have officially entered fall, it only makes sense to incorporate fall flavours, aka. use up my applesauce. These pancakes are fluffy and bursting with apple and cinnamon flavours.

• 1 apple, peeled, cored and sliced
