Step 1 (Prep the Batter): In a medium bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Beat egg, milk, buttermilk, and vanilla together; pour into dry mix, stirring until just combined. Fold in diced apples.
Step 2
Step 2 (Heat the Pan): Heat 2 tbsp coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking. Test heat by dropping a drop of batter onto the surface; if it sizzles, ready.
