Apple Pancakes With Apple Syrup – A Special Taste Treat
One of our staple dishes is the egg cup and we serve it with many different sides. This is with apple pancakes.
Apple pancakes with apple syrup is a special taste treat at Down By The River B and B. When we serve our egg cups or breakfast bake we have a side dish to go with the main dish. Sometimes it is peach pancakes or one of our French toast creations. With the apples ripening at Apple Annie’s Orchard, we make our Apple pancakes with apple syrup so that our guests get some fresh apple taste in the morning.
While you could use just Bisquick or other box mix for your pancakes we add a little more to ours. We use a pancake mix but add wheat germ and flax seed along with an egg to add a little more flavor and heartiness to the pancakes. We also have a griddle that will cook 8 – 6 inch pancakes at a time. So here is the recipe for the apple pancakes with apple syrup.
Cooking apple pancakes on our large skillet is helpful when we have a full table for breakfast.

If there aren’t two people working this then you can do the syrup and set aside. Pour into a serving dish and prior to serving the pancakes put the serving dish in boiling water in a pan and heat it up to a warmer temp. The extra can be preserved in a canning jar.
Pouring the apple syrup on the apple pancakes is the start of the taste sensation during breakfast at Down By The River B and B.
