Puffy Apple Pancake
Ingredients
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
½ tsp ground cinnamon
1 medium apple (Gala, Fuji), cored, peeled, sliced
2 large eggs
½ cup milk
¼ tsp salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Melt butter in a 9-inch pie plate.
Remove from oven, brush butter on sides of pie plate. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on bottom of pie plate. Arrange thinly sliced apples over sugar.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and salt. Pour over apples.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until puffy and deep golden brown.
Remove from oven and immediately loosen edge of pancake. Turn upside down on to plate.
Handling & Storage
Apples should feel firm to the touch and be free of bruises.
Place apples in a plastic bag and refrigerate in the crisper for up to a month.
Do not peel or slice an apple until ready to use or it will begin to brown. Dip slices into lemon juice to slow down the browning process.
