I personally love eating my way through the bounty and flavors of fall, like these Apple Cider Pancakes for example, they are fun and nice departure from the traditional! Topped with Apple Cider Syrup, they are a taste of fall!

Fall flavors are the best! Sure I love BBQ season but bring on the pumpkin, apple and cranberry everything!
From these Apple Cider Pancakes with Apple Cider Syrup to Apple Fritters, Candy Apple Slices, my and TikTok famous Cranberry Soda Bread, Nantucket Pie and The Original Pumpkin Pie, I am ready to make and eat all the fall foods!!
I will say that I am not one to rush into Fall flavors. I wait for Fall to actually arrive, treating the oncoming bounty like a present waiting to be opened.
It makes me happy to make & eat my favorite fall recipes. And happier still that so many people make them again and again and have written me how some of them are a part of their families tradition now 🙂

I totally enjoy these pancakes as does my daughter. My husband who is a pancake purist said they were good but he wouldn't order them...which by-the-way, I have never seen him do.
He has never once ordered pancakes out, he only orders a savory breakfast so there's that. My son isn't into pancakes, he wants eggs and meat and meat however, he humored me and ate one. He said it was good. You decide!
These Apple Cider Pancakes are fun, different and full of the sweet flavors of Fall. They are good with maple syrup but what the heck, make some of this Apple Cider Syrup...Why not! It's yummy and you can use it for ice cream, waffles, cakes, quick breads or just eat it warn off of the spoon...like someone who shall remain nameless did, ummm again and again and again.

- For the SyrupCombine all ingredients *except butter* in a saucepan. Whisk over medium heat for a few minutes until bubbly & thickened a bit. Remove from heat, add in the butter, stir until melted and serve warm.
Notes
Syrup is best served warm. If you don't want to use cornstarch, just allow mixture to boil for a few minutes to help it thicken. You can easily double the Apple Cider Syrup ingredients. Keep syrup refrigerated in a mason jar (after it is completely cool). Use within 7-10 days. Reheat it gently in microwave (30 second intervals and stir) or in a small pot, just until warmed and loose. Calories are calculated dividing the full recipe for pancakes and syrup between 4 people.
