    I love breakfast in all itโ€™s forms! From air fryer pancakes, breakfast burritos, tacos, sandwiches, or a delicious skillet, I am there.

    These bacon pancakes are perfect for fall and will be on repeat for the months to come! They are so easy and soooo delicious!

    Every bite is mouthwatering good!

    What you need for apple bacon pancakes:

    • Pancake Mix plus any extra ingredients it requires (typically eggs, milk, oil)
    • Apples- I like a gala if I want it a little sweeter or a green apple if I want a tart taste
    • Bacon- highly recommend the Good Ranchers Pumpkin Spice Bacon!
    • Butter
    • Brown Sugar
    • Cinnamon
    • Maple Syrup

    All you need are a few ingredients!

    If you like this recipe check out my cinnamon pull apart and caramel cinnamon rolls! Both are great additions for the fall breakfasts!

    What pancake mix should you use?

    I used Bisquick mix which needed eggs, milk, and a little oil added to the batter. I am a huge fan of bisquick mix (I use it in my blueberry coffee cake and these cheesy biscuits) and so it was no brainer to use it in this recipe.

    Krusteez is also a great pancake mix and only requires water.

    If you have a favorite homemade pancake mix feel free to use that as well!

    Let's Talk Bacon

    For this recipe I was sent some Good Ranchers Pumpkin Spice Bacon and to say I was skeptical at first is an understatement. I love a good pumpkin pie, cookies, or bread but bacon?

    Well, unsurprisingly, like everything Iโ€™ve tried from Good Ranchers, itโ€™s amazing. I also used it in for this delicious bacon wrapped dates recipe and this bacon apple grilled cheese- and it is spot on every time! 100% recommend!

    The marbling is so good!!!

    You can get this bacon here and if you use code JOY at checkout you will get $30 off your order! Super awesome!

    Good Rancherโ€™s has been a favorite company of mine for a long time now. Iโ€™ve used it for loads of chicken, steak, pork, and fish recipes, and even used their bacon in a candied bacon recipe.

    Not only do they have top quality meat sourced only from American ranchers, but for every box purchased they give meals to those in need. A truly incredible company!

    • Once apples are cooked add the remaining bacon and syrup, stir, and spoon onto pancakes.
    • If you don't have pumpkin spice bacon from Good Ranchers simply add ยฝ teaspoon of pie spice to the apple topping!

    How to know when to flip pancakes?

    Flip pancakes with the edges are set and bubble start to form on the surface of the batter.

    What goes with pancakes and bacon?

    • Top pancakes with a little whipped cream.
    • Serve pancakes along with eggs- fried, scrambled, or poached.
    • Orange juice or this orange smoothie is a great drink to go with pancakes.

    Notes

    Tips and Tricks
    • *You can put in as much of the bacon as you want, I just like to save some for the apple topping. If you put it all in you will still get a delicious tasting bacon pancake that is even more loaded with bacon! Canโ€™t go wrong!
    • Pumpkin Spice Bacon: If you don't have pumpkin spice bacon from Good Ranchers simply add ยฝ teaspoon of pie spice to the apple topping!
    • *To oil the fry pan or skillet add a little vegetable oil or canola oil to the pan, carefully use a paper towel to spread it around and wipe up the excess. Every time before you add new batter to the pan carefully wipe it with the oiled paper towel.
    • *If you notice the pancakes getting too dark/cooking too fast turn the heat to medium/low.
    • Nutrition info doesn't include additional ingredients for pancake batter (milk, eggs, and oil).
