Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 large Apples (firm and tart, such as Granny Smith)
- 6 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Set aside.
In an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the apple slices and sauté for 5 minutes until slightly softened.
Sprinkle the apples with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, the cinnamon, and the cardamom. Stir to coat evenly and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 4 tablespoons of granulated sugar, salt, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to form a smooth batter.
Pour the batter over the sautéed apples in the skillet, making sure it spreads evenly.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the batter is puffed and golden brown.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pie cool for 5 minutes.
Dust the top with powdered sugar before slicing and serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on the side.
