Apple-Bacon Pancakes With Cider Syrup
Ingredients
½ cup apple cider
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar, divided
1½ teaspoons lemon juice
1½ teaspoons cornstarch
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
1 large egg white
½ cup nonfat buttermilk
1 medium apple, peeled and finely diced, (about 1 cup)
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 teaspoon canola oil, divided
Cooking Instructions
Combine cider, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, lemon juice and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking, and cook until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
Whisk gluten-free 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 3 inches 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 cider syrup, if desired, and serve with the pancakes.
This make great tasting Waffles, also.
