Apple Cider Caramel Pancake Popovers

November 28, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 9 Comments

Happy Wednesday!!

This past weekend I made the most cute little breakfast that would be so adorable to serve at a brunch or at a holiday breakfast.  It’s sweet, mostly healthy and ohhhh so good that it makes my heart skip a beat!  Besides the taste, the best part is, it doesn’t take that long to make!!!

This is my Apple Cider Caramel Pancake Popovers!   This is my traditional yogurt base pancake mix, chock full of fresh apples and a sweet, thick apple cider caramel glaze poured over the top.  The syrup I used is unbelievable!!!  It is so sweet and has a wonderful caramel flavor with a hint of cinnamon and apple.  I am telling you to make a double batch of the syrup!!  I originally came up with the syrup recipe when I tried to make caramel apples that were more healthy than regular caramel covered apples.  Well the sauce came out thick but not thick enough to coat an apple, so I did the next best thing, dipped the apples into the sauce.  After I gobbled it right up, it came to me that this would make a wonderful syrup over apple pancakes.  Boy I was right!!

 


I love baking pancakes in a muffin tin rather than cooking them on a griddle or skillet.  You don’t have to stand there flipping batter, trying to make the perfect circle, you won’t have a huge mess and you can walk away from the stove.  Win win!  I mixed my batter in the blender to make is smooth, folded in the apples and poured it into my muffin cups.  I baked it for 11 minutes and out came these cute little darlings.

The syrup for the popovers, is also very easy and only takes a few minutes to make.  In a small sauce pan I added sugar-free maple syrup, apple cider, margarine, brown sugar and vanilla extract and then set the pot over medium heat.  I whisked it to keep the sugar from burning and then waited for it to turn to a rolling boil.  Once it hit a rolling boil, I whisked it for one minute.  I took it off the stove, and made a cornstarch and water mixture. Placed the syrup back on the stove top under a low heat and whisked in the cornstarch mixture until it became thick.  The whole process took maybe 6 minutes.  It’s really quick and really worth it.

For presentation I added a pecan on top of the popover, however if you’re a pecan fan, you could chop some up and place right in the batter.  I bet that would be really good.  The popovers came out light and fluffy and you get a little apple in every bite.  I was really surprised but my Husband who never eats breakfast, had to have some popovers.  The aroma of the syrup was calling his name and he couldn’t resist the temptation.

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep clea Happy Thursday! As you may know I did my deep cleaning in my kitchen on Monday. I washed the floors, cabinets, counters and decluttered the countertops. It feels so good and everything is so bright and clean. Well….

My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.
💖
What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

🌿
I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together. 
🌿
Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
