Apple Pancake Syrup

When the orchard apples were first available in fall, I purchased a large bag of my favorite apples for baking. I've been using them up in various recipes and this is one of them. We really like this syrup on apple pancakes. Dipping slices of apples in this syrup is really tasty as well.

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 cup pure apple juice
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons butter

1. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon.
2. Whisk in apple juice until mixture is smooth.
3. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until bubbly and thickened.
4. Stir in lemon juice and butter.
5. Serve with pancakes. (really good on apple pancakes)
6. Yield: Approx 1 cup.
