  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 Rolling pin
  • 1 Paring knife
  • 1 Saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced You can substitute different types of apples based on your preference.
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
