Ingredients

  • PANCAKE:
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbs unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbs granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • APPLE TOPPING:
  • 2 apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tbs unsalted butter
  • Confectioners’ sugar (for dusting at the end)
  • (YOU MAY ALSO SUBSTITUTE 1 (21 oz) CAN OF APPLE PIE FILLING FOR THE APPLE TOPPING MIXTURE)

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, sugar and vanilla extract. Set aside. Butter 2 (9-inch) round pans (or a cast-iron skillet) and preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.

Pour your batter into the prepared pans, or cast iron skillet), and bake for 20 – 25 minutes, or until the pancake begins to puff up, the edges begin to curl away from the pan and the pancake is golden brown!

While your pancake is baking, prepare your apple topping. Peel and thinly slice your apples, and saute them in a small pan with the butter, sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon. Cook until the apples are soft.

Once the pancake is done, sprinkle it with the confectioners’ sugar and top with cooked apples (or apple pie filling mixture) and serve!
