Notes

  • *Make this in either a 10 or 12 inch cast iron skillet, oven safe skillet, or Dutch oven.  
  • **Use either a hand mixer, blender, or vigorously whisk by hand. Be sure to incorporate air and make the batter fluffy.  
  • Substitutions:
  • Apples: Fresh berries, reduce the apples, or even bake without fruit and top it after it's baked.
  • All Purpose Flour: Gluten free or other nut flours. 
  • Sugar: Use a sugar substitute or maple syrup, honey, or agave
  • Lemon Juice and Confectioner's Sugar: Berries, maple syrup, chocolate chips, whipped cream, or jam! 
  • We prefer this packed with apples so we use 1 1/2 cups but you could use as little as 1/2 cup, dependent upon your preference.
