Grated skin-on and blitzed straight into the batter, Jazz apples do most of the work in these breakfast pancakes – lending natural sweetness, a fine crunch of texture, and a good hit of gut-friendly pectin, no refined sugar rush required. Grown by Montague Farms, Jazz apples bring their signature crisp-tart balance to the mix, turning a five-minute blender batter into something that feels closer to a treat than a health food. Finished with a dollop of yoghurt and a slow drizzle of maple, this is a breakfast (or 3pm reset) worth setting the blender out for.
