Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sugar1 cup flour 1 teaspoon baking powder salt to taste 1 1/4 cups milk 2 eggs 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 4 tablespoons butter 2 lb. apples (approximately 4 large), Golden Delicious or Granny Smith, peeled, quartered and cut into 1/8"" slices 1 tablespoon sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions:
You must have a non-stick skillet or this won't work! Whisk sugar, flour, baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt together. Beat milk with eggs and vanilla and whisk this into batter. Let stand while cooking apples.Melt the butter in a large skillet. when foaming subsides, add the apples, cover and cook gently for 5 minutes or until soft. Uncover, raise the heat and evaporate the moisture. When almost evaporated, add the sugar and finish boiling the juices away. Preheat the broiler with rack set 6"" to 7"" away from the heat source. Oil the bottom and sides of a 10"" non-stick pan with butter or non-stick vegetable spray and heat for one minute. Add 1/3 cup of the batter to the pan and tilt so it is well coated. Set skillet on very low heat and cook for 30 seconds. Gently arrange about 1/4 of the cooked apple mixture on the pancake. Pour 1/3 cup additional batter over the apples to cover them as best as possible. Cook pancake for a minute over medium heat, lower the heat and cook 2 minutes longer. Place under broiler and cook about 3 minutes, or until cooked through and golden. Repeat procedure with three other pancakes. Serve dusted with confectioners sugar | |
