Apple Pie Pancakes W Caramel Bourbon Glaze Recipes

CARAMEL-APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• To make syrup, melt 1/4 cup butter in 1-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar; stir until dissolved. Add water; heat to boiling. Simmer 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat; add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.
• To make pancake batter, in large bowl, beat Bisquick™ mix, milk, eggs, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon vanilla with whisk.
• Heat skillet over medium heat; grease with butter. Pour 1/4 cupfuls batter into skillet. Once batter has stopped spreading and begins to set, place 1 apple round on top of each. Cook 2 to 3 minutes longer or until bubbles appear at surface and edges are dry. Turn; cook 2 minutes longer or until browned. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet before each to prevent apple slices from sticking.
• Serve immediately with syrup.

CARAMEL APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine diced apples and water in a microwave-safe dish for the sauce. Cover and microwave on high power for 3 minutes. Stir, replace cover, and microwave on high until apples are fork-tender, about 2 more minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Combine brown sugar, cream, butter, and salt in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes. Mixture should be bubbly all over the surface. Mix in vanilla extract and cook, stirring, for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cooked, drained apples.
• Preheat an electric griddle to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly grease.
• Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
• Combine eggs and milk in a separate container, stirring briskly until eggs are well incorporated. Drizzle in melted butter while stirring. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until most of the lumps are gone.
• Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to pour batter in batches onto the preheated griddle, forming 6-inch pancakes.
• Cook until bubbles form on top of the pancakes and the surface begins to look a little dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Brown to desired doneness on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes. Keep first batch warm in a 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) oven, while the remaining pancakes cook.
• Serve a stack of 3 pancakes with caramelized apple sauce, and garnish with chopped, toasted walnuts.

APPLE PIE PANCAKES W/ CARAMEL BOURBON GLAZE

Steps:

• 1. In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of caramel topping and 3 Tbsp of bourbon.
• 2. Simmer on low heat while preparing pancake batter and pancakes.
• 3. In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick, egg, milk, apple pie spice and sugar.
• 4. Using a wire whisk, beat until batter is somewhat smooth.
• 5. Gently fold in the apples.
• 6. On a heated griddle or non-stick skillet, spray non-stick cooking spray. Pour just under 1/3 cup of the batter into the skillet. If using a large skillet, you should be able to get about 2 pancakes per batch. Don't overcrowd the skillet.
• 7. Cook until edges are dry and batter starts to bubble a little in the middle. Carefully turn the pancake over using a spatula. Once you have flipped the pancake, take a basting brush and dip into butter. Carefully spread the butter over the pancakes while they are in the skillet.
• 8. Place one pancake on a plate, add about 1 tablespoon of the bourbon glaze, top with another pancake and additional bourbon glaze.
• 9. Garnish with fried apple slices with cinnamon, if desired. Sprinkle with additional apple pie spice, if desired.
