Yummy Apple Cider Pancakes

  3.5 – 4 reviews  

I normally use powdered milk for cooking, so I figured why not give it a go with some cider that was getting sour (hardening?). Therefore, instead of using liquid milk, we created our pancakes with apple cider and powdered milk. surprisingly delicious

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 20 mins
Servings: 6
Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  2. ¾ cup powdered milk
  3. 2 tablespoons white sugar
  4. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  5. ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  6. ½ teaspoon baking soda
  7. 2 cups apple cider
  8. ¼ cup vegetable oil
  9. 2 eggs
  10. 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

  1. Sift flour, powdered milk, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and baking soda together in a bowl. Whisk apple cider, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and eggs together in a separate bowl. Stir apple cider mixture into flour mixture until batter is just combined.
  2. Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
  3. If you prefer a thinner pancake, add a bit of water or more cider to the batter.
  4. Griddle is hot enough when a drop of water skitters across it.

My family loves anything Apple. But these pancakes were disappointing. The apple flavor was barely detectable, they were thin and elastic. I think this recipe has potential.

Makes a nice smooth pancake, not too sweet. Good use for leftover apple cider.

This recipe has potential, but needs tweaking. I followed this recipe to the letter, my review is based on the way it is written, and how they turned out without modifications. The batter was very thin, so I added a little more flour (the only change), and what I ended up with were pancakes that had no rise at all and were a bit rubbery. These pancakes were not even remotely “fluffy”. On the positive side, it did have a nice, subtle apple-cinnamon flavor. This recipe definitely needs more baking soda and baking powder to get a better rise and some additional flour. I won’t be making this again, instead, I think I’ll just go back to my tried and true pancake recipe and add some apple pie spice.

I cut this recipe in half for a trial run just to see if we liked it before I made a full batch. In a half batch, I did increase the baking powder to a full teaspoon and the baking soda to a half teaspoon. I also used a teaspoon of apple pie spice instead of plain cinnamon. I did use a good quality apple cider as well. The kids thought these were great–they ate all six pancakes. Thumbs up–this recipe’s a keeper.
