Favorite Pancake Mix
Lightly oil your skillet or fry pan* and heat over medium heat. Pour ~¼ cup of batter in the skillet. Depending on the size of the skillet will determine how many pancakes you can cook at once. Make sure to allow room for the batter to spread.
Cook pancakes until the edges are cooked and bubbles are forming on the top and the bottom is browned. * Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is browned. Remove from skillet and cover with foil or a plate to keep warm, repeat with remaining batter.
In a medium sauce pan combine cubed apples, butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir over medium heat, covering with a lid in between stirring, until apples are soft and can easily be pierced with a fork, about 5 minutes.
3 medium apples- gala for sweet, 3 tbs butter, 2 tbs brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Once cooked, stir in syrup and remaining crumbled bacon.
½ cup maple syrup
Top pancakes with apple bacon syrup mixture and enjoy!
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! Can’t go wrong!
Pumpkin Spice Bacon: If you don't have pumpkin spice bacon from Good Ranchers simply add ½ 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.
