When I walk into grocery stores in autumn and see fresh apple cider, I get goose bumps. I swear. I adore fall and everything that comes with it. Spooky costumes (that sometimes get banned from school). Hay rides to the pumpkin patch (yeah, I live in the desert but they pretend really well). Heartwarming, traditional family meals. Shopping for gifts and hiding them in the closet – all of it. For me, fresh apple cider is the doorway to the holidays – the ultimate symbol that fall fun is upon us and celebrations are close behind. I love a good spiced cider laced with rum, cinnamon and cloves. But I also love adding fresh cider to meals and sweet treats. These are my favorites — enjoy them. And share yours!
Apple Cinnamon PancakesThis pancake batter may be made up to 24 hours in advance, meaning you can wake up in the morning, flip some flapjacks and enjoy!Cooking spray
2 cups pancake mix
1 1/2 cups apple cider
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Maple syrup
Coat a griddle with cooking spray and preheat to medium-high.
In a large bowl, whisk together pancake mix, apple cider, cinnamon and vanilla until blended (small lumps are OK).
Spoon 1/8 cup of batter per pancake onto hot pan. Flip when tiny bubbles appear in the center and edges of pancakes. Keep pancakes warm in a 200 degree oven while making additional pancakes. Serve with maple syrup drizzled over top
