Apple Pancakes with Boiled Cider Syrup

 Apple Pancakes with Boiled Cider Syrup

Ingredients

Boiled Cider Syrup

• 2/3 cup (71g) brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons (7g) cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 cups (340g) boiled cider
• 4 tablespoons (27g) butter

Apple Pancakes

• 3 cups (177g) All-Purpose Flour
• 2 tablespoons (11g) baking powder
• 2 tablespoons (11g) granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon or Apple Pie Spice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups (99g) shredded apples
• 2 cups (227g) milk
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 4 tablespoons (25g) vegetable oil

Instructions

1. To make the syrup: Combine the brown sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon in a heavy saucepan. Whisk to mix. Stir in the cider. Whisk until smooth.
2. Cook over medium heat until mixture begins to boil, stirring occasionally. Immediately remove from the heat.
3. Add the butter, stirring until it melts.
4. Keep warm while pancakes cook.
5. To make the pancakes: In a saucepan, cook apples in about 1-2 Tbsp butter and about 1-2 Tbsp sugar until tender.
6. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar and salt. Whisk until combined.
7. Combine milk, egg and oil. Mix well.
8. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in apples. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
9. Preheat a well-seasoned or lightly greased griddle or skillet until water sizzles and "jumps" when splashed on the surface.
10. Drop 1/4-cupfuls of batter onto hot griddle or skillet — a cookie or ice cream scoop is good for this.
11. When bubbles break over the top and around the edges, turn and cook until lightly browned.
12. Serve pancakes hot with the warm syrup.
