Apple And Bacon Pancakes

“If you enjoy apples, and you love bacon but feel like pancakes, you will love this sweet, smoky pancake. Drizzled with syrup to enhance the apple flavour” 

Ingredients

● ½ cup apple cider
● 3 tbls brown sugar
● 1½ tsps lemon juice
● 1 ½ tsps corn flour
● ½ cup all purpose flour
● 1 tsp of baking powder
● ¼ tsp off baking soda
● 1 large egg
● 1 large egg white
● ½ cup low fat butter milk
● 1 medium apple, peeled and finely diced
● 4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
● 1 tsp canola oil

Method

Combine cider, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, lemon juice and corn flour in a small
saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking, and cook until thickened,
1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda and the remaining 1 tablespoon brown
sugar in a small bowl.
Whisk egg, egg white and buttermilk in a large bowl.
Stir in the dry ingredients, apples and bacon until just combined.
(The batter will be thick.)
Brush a large nonstick skillet with 1/2 teaspoon oil and place over medium heat
until hot. Cooking 4 at a time, use about 1/4 cup batter for each pancake and
gently spread it to make them about 10 cm in diameter. Cook until the edges are
dry and bubbles begin to form, about 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook until
golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining oil and batter,
reducing the heat as necessary to prevent burning. Reheat the maple syrup, if
desired, and serve with the pancakes.
