Calories
Author Laura

Ingredients

CIDER SYRUP:

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 Tbsp cornstarch
  • ⅛ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup apple cider or juice
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice

PANCAKE:

  • 2 cups complete pancake mix the kind that you only add water to, I used Hungry Jack
  • 1-1/2 cups apple juice or cider
  • 1 apple finely diced
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Start by preparing the syrup. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  • Add the cider in and stir until smooth. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly, about 5 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to a simmer and cook while stirring for 2 minutes longer. Stir in butter and lemon juice until butter is melted.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pancake mix and cinnamon. Add juice and whisk just until moistened.
  • Fold finely diced apple into the batter.
  • Pour batter onto a greased hot griddle using a 1/4 cup measuring cup; turn when bubbles form on top. Cook until second side is golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes with cider syrup. (I sprinkled some granola on mine along with a spoonful of whipped cream to make it look pretty) Makes 12 pancakes and 1-1/4 cups syrup.
