Sausage Apple Pancakes with Apple Cider Syrup

Easy apple pancakes stuffed with sausage and topped with a sweet and tangy apple cider maple syrup!

Pancakes are one of my favourite breakfasts and it’s always fun to add flavours to them like apples in these apple and sausage pancakes with apple cider syrup which are perfect for fall! This is a really simple recipe starting with a basic pancake recipe to which shredded apple is added along with cooked breakfast sausage! These apple and sausage pancakes are great with regular syrup or maple syrup but why not add even more apple-y goodness by topping them off with some freshly made apple cider syrup?
