Easy Apple Pancake
HB-13607 · Hand-built original
A puffy oven pancake baked over butter-softened Golden Delicious apple slices, with cinnamon, brown sugar and a dusting of powdered sugar.
Main ingredient: eggs
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 Tbsp. granulated sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
- ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
- ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
- 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 Golden Delicious apples (about 12 oz.), peeled, cored, thinly sliced
- 3 Tbsp. (packed) light brown sugar
- Powdered sugar (for serving; optional)
Method
- Heat the oven to 425°F before whisking the apple pancake batter.
- Whisk the eggs, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, kosher salt and ground cinnamon in a large bowl, then whisk in the all-purpose flour just until the batter is smooth.
- Melt the unsalted butter in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish in the oven for about 5 minutes, then swirl the butter to coat the base and partway up the sides.
- Arrange the thinly sliced Golden Delicious apples in overlapping rows in the buttery dish and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, until slightly softened with the butter bubbling and browning at the edges.
- Pour the batter straight over the hot apples, sprinkle the light brown sugar evenly across the top, and bake the easy apple pancake for 20 to 25 minutes, until puffed and brown at the edges.
- Dust the pancake with powdered sugar, if using, and serve it immediately before the puff settles.
