Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 0.75 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 medium apples (e.g., Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch ovenproof skillet or pie dish in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until smooth. Set the batter aside.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples.
Carefully remove the preheated skillet from the oven and add the butter. Swirl the pan to coat the bottom evenly as the butter melts.
Add the apple slices to the skillet and sprinkle the light brown sugar over them. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are softened and caramelized slightly.
Pour the prepared batter over the apples in the skillet. Do not stir. Quickly transfer the skillet back into the preheated oven.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. The pancake will deflate as it cools—this is normal!
Optional: Dust the pancake with powdered sugar for a decorative and sweet finish.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious puffy oven-baked apple pancake!
