The Requested Pancake Recipe

I posted the below picture of the German apple pancake Mom made, and Emily vehemently asked - ok, demanded - the recipe. So, Em, here you are!! (and anyone else who would like to make it :-)



INGREDIENTS
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup white sugar, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 large tart apple - peeled, cored and sliced


DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, blend eggs, flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Gradually mix in milk, stirring constantly. Add vanilla, melted butter and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Let batter stand for 30 minutes or overnight.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Melt butter in a 10 inch oven proof skillet, brushing butter up on the sides of the pan. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Sprinkle mixture over the butter. Line the pan with apple slices. Sprinkle remaining sugar over apples. Place pan over medium-high heat until the mixture bubbles, then gently pour the batter mixture over the apples.

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake for 10 minutes. Slide pancake onto serving platter and cut into wedges. (We just left it in the pan to slice).

Enjoy, girls!

Em, I hope you were wearing a bib or at least had a napkin handy... that's an awful lot of drool.

Emily Jo said...

Haven't you noticed my bib lately? It's just a new fashion statement I am trying out. I have a feeling it will catch on soon.

LOL! Just ignore these weird comments...
