Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 500 degrees.
  2. In a medium sized bowl combine flour, sugar, and salt.  In another medium sized bowl combine eggs, cream, and vanilla.  Add liquid ingredients to dry and whisk until blended.  Set aside.  
  3. Heat butter in an ovenproof nonstick skillet (we always use cast iron), over medium-high heat until sizzling. Add apples, brown sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon.  Stir frequently until apples are golden brown, around 10 minutes.  Remove from heat and add lemon juice, raisins and pecans, if using.  Stir until combined.  Pour batter over top of apples and place immediately into your oven.  Reduce temperature to 425 degrees.   Bake until edges are brown and puffy, around 18 minutes.  
  4. Remove skillet from oven and loosen the edges of the pancake with a rubber spatula.  Dump pancake upside down on to your serving platter.  Cut into wedges, and serve. Here is a list of topping ideas if needed. And, here's a list of what to serve with pancakes for you to choose from as the perfect accompaniment!

Notes

  • Apple swap: Don’t have Granny Smith apples? Use Honeycrisp, Gala, or Golden Delicious apples instead- they work just as well for this apple pancake recipe. 
  • Fruit fun: You can also tweak this German pancake recipe and add in other fruits of your choice. Chopped peaches, apricots, and blueberries are great choices. 
  • Milk matters: While you can definitely use skim milk or plant-based milk for this recipe, I would recommend using full-fat milk for this oven-baked pancake recipe for the best flavor and texture.
  • Cook right: Since these are made in the oven, they can get overcooked and brown up pretty quickly. Keep an eye on them and get them out at the right time!
