German Apple Pancakes

By srumbel

They are so very simple to put together. There are more eggs added to the batter so the texture is more moist and substantial. The batter is then poured over thinly sliced apples and baked which creates a puffy golden pancake of wonder.

Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• 1 C milk
• 1/4 t salt
• 2 T sugar
• 1 C flour
• 4 T butter, melted
• 3 small apples, peeled and thinly sliced
• Cinnamon Syrup (recipe found here)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.

2. Grab a blender (I use this Ninga that I can't say enough fabulous things about). Carefully crack 6 eggs and place them into it.

3. Add 1 cup of milk, I used 1%...for the very important reason that 1% milk is the kind I buy and keep on hand. Feel free to use what ever percent suits your fancy.

4. Toss in 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 cup of flour. Blend it for just a few seconds so that the eggs have a chance to get covered up before you add the hot melted butter.

5. Add 4 tablespoons of melted butter and blend it all up for about 1 minute, or until everything is well combined and a bit frothy.

6. Peel and thinly slice 3 small apples. Please be aware that you may use 2 large apples or 1 giant-sized apple. You just need about 1 1/2-2 cups of apples...give or take a few.

7. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and lay the apples out along the bottom.

8. Pour the pancake batter over the top of the apples.

9. Pop it into the oven (uncovered) and let it bake away for about 20 minutes or until it is cooked through and gloriously golden along the top and the bottom.

10. Allow it to rest for about 5 minutes before you cut into it. The puffiness will go down just a bit.

Then slice it and drizzle the day lights out of it with some homemade Cinnamon Syrup.

Serve and enjoy!!!
