Description
A fluffy apple pancake baked in a cast-iron skillet, topped with a sweet glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 large apples (cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick)
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup milk (I use 1%)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- More sauteed apples for garnish (if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- In a 10 inch cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan melt the butter with 3 tablespoons of the brown sugar. Add the apple slices and cook for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, flour, milk, cinnamon, salt, vanilla, and remaining tablespoon of brown sugar.
- Pour the batter over the cooked apple mixture. Transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until dark golden brown and puffed around the edges, about 15 minutes.
- While the pancake is in the oven, make the glaze. Combine the powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon in a bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
- After the pancake comes out of the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes (it will deflate a bit). Drizzle the glaze over the pancake and top with additional cooked apples if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the skillet is well-seasoned for best results.
- Serve immediately for the best texture.
