SPICY SAUSAGE AND APPLE PANCAKES

Provided by Food Network

Time 45m

Yield about 24 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound ground pork
1/4 cup Thai chili garlic sauce
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 cups self-rising flour
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoons red food dye
2 tablespoons pure apple extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 small red apples
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • For the sausage: Begin by browning the sausage in a pan over medium heat. Stir in the Thai chili garlic sauce and brown sugar and cook for 10 to 15 more minutes. Remove from the pan and set on paper towels to drain. For the pancakes: Mix the flour and sugar together. Whisk in the milk, oil and eggs. Add the food dye and extracts and mix well.
  • Core the apples and remove any seeds, then slice in round slices.
  • Heat a griddle to 300 degrees F. Drop batter by spoonfuls onto the griddle. When bubbles begin to appear on top of the pancakes, add an apple slice to the top of each pancake, then flip. Cook until both the apple slice and the pancake have browned, an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Then remove, placing the pancakes apple-side up on wax paper to cool. Stack them this way (upside down!) to display the fresh apple. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Place a stack of pancakes on a plate and spoon warm crumbled sausage over the top, then drizzle with maple syrup and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. Different apples offer different flavors and textures, so using a mix will create a more complex and interesting pancake.
  • Sauté the apples before adding them to the batter. This will help to caramelize the apples and bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Apple sausage pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch recipe. They're perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love.
