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 Thursday! I changed up my dining room a lit Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room  a little bit. I took out my Easter decor and gave it a more neutral look and did some switching around. Plus I added a Samantha Sue, who is laying down in the photo. lol
🍓
One of my favorite pieces that I added was my new @krumpetshomedecor sign. I love the style of the sign with the shiplap white wash look and of course the cute strawberry and daisies that add a pretty pop of color.
🍓
The sign is also reversible. It also says Life is Sweet on the other side without the strawberries and daises. The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week.
🍓
You can get free shipping and an additional 10% off with my discount: PBANDP.

What is your favorite summer fruit?

Hello and happy Wednesday! Thank you for all your Hello and happy Wednesday!  Thank you for all your kind words about the dentist. All he had to do is cement my crown back on. He said your crown has sticky with clear stuff on it. He said I don’t think it’s the old cement?  I told him I ate a white Trader Joe’s jelly bean and I thought I got it all off. He was laughing.
🌿
It’s that time of year for house plant care. While your plants are waking from dormancy, it’s time to feed them, repot them if needed and give a trim if applicable.
🌿
I also water my plants about every 7-10 days, depending on the plant. My coffee plant, fern, violet and my mixed plant container needs watering more. The key to know when to water is check the soil. I use a water meter probe and  you just stick it in the dirt. If it’s dry, I water. If it’s moist or wet, I’ll check again in a few days. You can get a water meter at Lowe’s, your local nursery or Amazon. It’s my number 1 garden tool. We use it on outside plants too.
🌿
I’m also sharing with you my cute little tea towel that I got from @e.h.designco. Her shop is closed right now because she’s moving, but will be open back in June.
🌿
Okay, go check your plants!
🌿
What’s your favorite house plant?

Happy Tuesday! Well today’s the day! I head to Happy Tuesday!  Well today’s the day! I head to the dentist. Wish me luck. I hope they will be able to glue my crown back on. I hate going to the dentist! Ugh!
🌸
Today I am sharing with you my new plates and bowls that I got from @sonemone_official. I just love them. The shade of blue is so pretty and I love the vibrant colors on them.
🌸
The bowls are huge and would make a wonderful soup bowl or salad bowl. The plates would be beautiful served with a charcuterie board. They are microwave and dishwasher safe. They would be so pretty on a summer tablescape.
🌸
Are you ready for summer decorating?

Happy Good Friday! So happy the weekend is here. Happy Good Friday!  So happy the weekend is here. It’s been a glorious week with warm temperatures and sunshine. Next week it’s supposed to cool off dramatically, so I am going to enjoy it while it’s here.
💕
I wanted to get one last Easter tiered tray in before Sunday. Everything you see here is from small shops. I tagged all of them in the photo.
💕
This weekend I’ll be taking a break from IG to work in the yard and to do some decorating so I have some new content to share with you. Though with Easter almost behind us, I’m unsure what I’ll do next? But I do think I’ll stick with the yellows? But we’ll see.
💕
Have the most wonderful weekend and Easter holiday!!

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind Happy Thursday! I can’t believe March is behind us and now we are in April. March flew by in a blink of an eye.  I can’t get over how fast the month went. It’s crazy.
🌸
My excitement for me today is trying to get into a dentist. My crown on my implant fell out yesterday when I was eating a jelly bean. The last place I want to go is the dentist. Yuck!
🌸
I’ll admit engagement in March on IG has just been awful. But I am so thankful for you. Thank you for stopping by and liking my photos and your sweet comments. You always make my day. Let’s hope April is better for all of us.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my top 4 photos of March. You guys picked some good ones. The first photo of the Easter tablescape is my favorite tablescape I’ve done.
🌸
Do you have any plans for this weekend?

Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 Hey, hey, hey! Happy Wednesday! Well I crammed 23 bunnies into this picture, if you count the bunnies on the pillow. Can you find them all?
🐰
This is probably my favorite spot to decorate. About a year or so ago, I had no idea what to do in this area. I struggled so much. It’s just an odd space. Then I bought the white bench and it instantly became so much fun to decorate.
🐰
I loved the bench so much, I bought a second one to go under the other window. That bench holds my plants. I have other awkward spaces in my home that I would love to add a bench, but my husband would kill me if I got another. I can overdo things when I like something. Like bunnies and pumpkins. lol
🐰
Do you have something that you can’t resist to buy?

Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vigne Happy Tuesday! I’m back with another bunny vignette. I told you that I’m trying to squeeze them all in.
🐰
Let me tell you, I must have taken a bazillion photos of this vignette. I moved it all over my house. I have the worse time photographing greens and yellows together. I have the same issue with sunflowers too.
🐰
I was inspired by this vignette by the cute little Fresh Dyed Eggs sign from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. I love the little sign so much. She makes the cutest little signs.
🐰
I had fun putting together the shallow pot with moss and the birds nest. I added my little daffodils to it to look like they are popping out of the pot.
🐰
Is there something you try to photograph that gives you a hard time?

Happy Monday!! I can’t believe next weekend is E Happy Monday!! I can’t believe next weekend is Easter, so you know what that means? I need to get in as many bunny pictures as I possibly can.
🐰
Who am I kidding? You’ll probably get a lot more bunnies in the coming weeks. In all actuality, I keep most of my bunny decor up all year, unless it screams Easter.
🐰
This weekend was a busy one for me. The first real warm weekend we’ve had all year, so I spent a lot of time working the garden. I’m actually kind of sore, which is a good thing. Nothing like the sun shining, warm air and playing in the dirt. My favorite thing.
🐰
What do you look most forward to when the weather warms up?
