Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
While the batter rests, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced apples to the skillet, and sprinkle them with ground cinnamon and brown sugar. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized. Remove the apples from the skillet and set aside.
Wipe the skillet clean and melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour in enough batter to cover the bottom of the skillet in a thin, even layer (approximately 1/4 cup).
Cook the pancake for 1–2 minutes, or until the edges are set and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the pancake and cook on the other side for an additional 1–2 minutes. Remove the pancake from the skillet and keep warm.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed, until all the pancakes are cooked.
To serve, layer the pancakes with the caramelized apples, and dust with powdered sugar. Serve warm and enjoy!
