Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 500°. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour with the sugar and salt. Gradually mix in the milk, eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet. Spread the apples in the pan, add the lemon juice and cinnamon and cook over moderately high heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

Strain the batter through a sieve over the apples, pressing with a spatula. Bake the pancake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are puffed and browned and the center is set. Serve immediately, with maple syrup.
