Apple Molasses Pancakes With Honey Butter Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• In a large measuring cup combine the buttermilk, egg, and 3 tablespoons maple syrup and stir with a fork. Stir into the flour mixture with a spatula until just combined. Mix in the diced apple and sausage crumbles.
• Heat a pancake griddle over medium-low heat and then grease with a small amount of butter. Drop ladles of batter to form 4-inch pancakes, cooking pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes before flipping, or until the batter puffs up and bubbles form. Flip pancakes and continue to cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, until cooked through and nicely browned. Top with Cinnamon Walnut Butter and additional maple syrup, if desired.
• Combine the butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt in a bowl and mix until well blended. Serve with pancakes.

Steps:

• In 1-quart saucepan, heat all syrup ingredients over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warm; keep warm.
• Heat griddle or skillet over medium heat or electric griddle to 375°F. Grease with cooking spray, vegetable oil or shortening. (Surface is ready when a few drops of water sprinkled on it dance and disappear.)
• In medium bowl, stir all pancake ingredients until blended. For each pancake, pour slightly less than 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle.
• Cook until edges are dry. Turn; cook other sides until golden. Serve with warm syrup.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 8-inch square pan with shortening; lightly flour.
• In small bowl, mix 1 3/4 cups of the flour, the baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, baking soda and salt. In medium bowl, beat brown sugar and 1/2 cup butter with electric mixer on medium speed 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. On low speed, beat in molasses. Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with 1/2 cup buttermilk, beating after each addition just until smooth. Mix remaining 1/4 cup flour and the apples. Fold into batter. Pour into pan.
• Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 2 hours.
