How to Make Apple Pancakes With Apple Syrup

  1. **Make the Apple Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 2 medium peeled, cored, and thinly sliced apples, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, 1/4 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  2. Reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the syrup has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally.
  3. **Make the Pancakes:** Preheat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups biscuit mix, 1/2 cup raisins or craisins (optional).
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil.
  6. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until moistened. Do not overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 cup diced apple and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
  8. Lightly grease the hot griddle or skillet.
  9. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
  10. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
  11. Serve the pancakes immediately, topped with the warm apple syrup.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
