Not a Recipe....

I ran across this website the other day. You can download and print the activity/coloring books for the Living Scriptures movies. We take them to church and my kids really like them. You do have to fill out a free subscription, but they haven't sent me anything so far. Here is the link http://www.ldsfamilyfun.com/ldsff/account/login?from=account

Apple Pancakes with Cider Syrup

Amy found this recipe I thought I would share it with you guys.

2 cups complete pancake mix
1 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup grated apple
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

Cider Syrup
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 cup apple cider or juice
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
2 Tbsp. butter, cubed

In a small bowl, stir the pancake mix, water, apple and cinnamon until just moistened. Pour batter by 1/4 cupful onto a greased hot griddle.

Meanwhile, for syrup, in a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, nutmeg and cinnamon. Stir in cider until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; cook and sitr 2 minutes longer. Stir in butter and lemon juice. Serve with pancakes.
