Toppings:
Butter:
Before serving your pancakes, be sure to top them with a dollop of butter. This adds extra moisture and a lovely richness to the flavor.
Maple Syrup:
Maple syrup is the perfect complement to the apple cider pancakes as it adds a lovely depth of flavor. To ensure that your syrup is warm when you serve your pancakes, give it a quick zap in the microwave.
Sliced Apples:
For an extra burst of fall flavor, try adding some thinly sliced apples to your pancakes. You can either place them on top of your pancakes or stir them into your batter before cooking.
Optional: Cinnamon Sugar
If you want a sweet, crispy exterior to your pancakes, try sprinkling some cinnamon sugar on the pancakes while they are cooking. This is a great way to add some extra sweetness and texture.
