Ingredients
- 1 cup thin apple slices peeled
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar divided
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 5 large eggs
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350 F.
- In a small bowl, toss apple slices, 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice together; set aside.
- Cut the butter into four pieces, and place them in a deep cast iron skillet. I use this 10-inch cast iron skillet or an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- Put the skillet or baking dish in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the butter has melted.
- Take the pan out of the oven; sprinkle brown sugar over the melted butter.
- Add apple slice mixture evenly over brown sugar.
- Put the pan back in the oven while you make the remaining batter.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt.
- Whisk in milk, and continue whisking until no flour lumps remain.
- Add eggs, one at a time, and whisk until incorporated.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Take the pan out of the oven, and pour the batter over the apples.
- Bake for 18-25 minutes, or until the center is set and sides are lightly browned.
- The pancake with start to deflate once it is removed from the oven. Serve warm.
Notes
- Apple slices - I recommend using a baking apple that will hold its shape like a Granny Smith apples or Honeycrisps.
- Spices: You can use 2 ¼ teaspoons of apple pie spice in place of the spices listed in the recipe.
- Butter - I use salted butter. If using unsalted butter, add an extra pinch or two of salt.
- Brown sugar - Light or dark brown sugar will work.
- Milk - Any milk from skim milk to whole milk will work. You can also use plant-based milk, like almond milk, in this recipe.
