Turned out great I added baking powder to the batter with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla,and added brown sugar to the apples
This came out beautifully. I’m giving it 4 just because I thought it needed a little salt. other than that it was perfect!
Made this four times so far. The first two times it was not fully cooked at the bottom and a bit yellow. Finally I got it right: : 3/4 apple, 2/3 cup flour, 2/3 cup milk, 1 egg, 2 tbl butter, and a bit of cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. I use only 1 egg, much less than the recipes calls for. Cooked for 15 + 20 minutes, longer than stated in the recipe. Tastes great.
perfect measurements. the only difference I added 2 TBS of brown sugar and a few sprinkles of cinnamon to the apples and cooked in oven as instructed. the bottom is a caramel apple sauce. so good!
This recipe worked great! I sautéed the apples with butter and about 1/4 cup of sugar. I added vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Great breakfast!
Just made it this morning, a little disappointed. it’s to eggy and there wasn’t enough apples in the ingredients.
This pancake plus a salad made a fine casual dinner for 2 people. I used 5 eggs instead of 6. I sprinkled the apples and egg mixture with cinnamon and sugar. The pancake had a nice texture and taste. I softened the apples in the butter while the oven was preheating. However, I set the heat for 425, not 450 to be sure the smoke alarm didn’t start buzzing.
It came out very good. I only used 4 eggs. I also added vanilla, cinnamon, and a touch of brown sugar to the batter. I would definitely make this again.
Baked up nicely, light and fluffy. I used maple syrup and it did taste good. Thinking about adding cinnamon the next time.
I didn’t make this recipe as direction, I kind of used it as a framework to make substitutions as I needed because I can’t eat eggs. So I used all-purpose gluten-free flower and applesauce instead of eggs. I added in some spices: cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. A pinch of salt and some sugar. It had to bake longer as a result of the applesauce, but it was delicious. Will be making it again.
FOOLPROOF!I made this for Christmas morning. I was alone and wanted something easy and special. Since I had everything on hand almost, I only had 5 large eggs, I went ahead and used my blender. I forgot the milk, so added that on top about 3 minutes into the baking which I didn’t stir enough so it boiled over at 9 minutes into the cooking. Boiled, baked milk stinks! IT WAS DELICIOUS.
Like another reviewer, I love having the apples cooking while preheating the skillet. I have made an almost exact recipe for years and I came looking for the oven temperature. The recipe that I have calls for 4 Granny Smith apples. Which improves the “apple” taste. My recipe does not call for sugar or cinnamon on the apples, either. The recipe that I have calls for a brief stir of the batter – it is not smooth, but lumpy. When the batter is added to the hot pan, you shake the pan to settle the batter into the apples. And the apples float. At the end, the recipe I have calls for cinnamon sugar topping (1 cup sugar, 2 T cinnamon, mixed) sprinkled (poured) over the top (which is cracked) and then a 1/2 cup melted butter is poured over the sugar. Than the topping is placed back in the oven to melt the sugar topping. Today, I tried my recipe and used 2 Fuji apples and 2 Granny Smith — this is not a good idea because the Fujis are way too juicy.
My pancake turned out kind of dry and flat. We ate it and it had a nice apple taste but something was not quite right with this recipe. I was expecting a nice fluffy pancake. I am not sure if I will make it again because I don’t like to waste food. I rate this a 4 because my family ate it.
I love that you use the oven while it’s preheating to heat the butter and apples. So easy to mix the remaining ingredients in the blender and make a fun weekend breakfast so quickly & eaasily. I did add about 2 Tbsp of brown suger, a tsp of cinammon and a tsp of vanilla for extra flavor though. My family loved it and we’ll make this again.
I like the base of this recipe but 1 apple is not enough. I make it with 2 apples and fresh raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, blueberries and, sometimes, a banana. I am sure you could use frozen or can fruit as well. I have tasted it with canned red plums and it was yummy. In all, I use about 5 cups of fruit.
this turned out awesome….i dont have a cast iron skillet so i just used a regular one but it didnt seem to effect the outcome of the recipe. I made a few changes, just added a little cinnamon, sugar and vanilla to the batter. My boyfriend thought it was weird/gross but quickly changed his tune after trying it 🙂
Excellent! I’ve made this several times as written. I’ve also made it and increased the apples and added brown sugar to the apple mixture. You just can’t mess this one up, no matter what you do. So easy and so good! Thanks for sharing!
I’m sure it’s delicious when it works out, but I followed the recipe to the letter and it ended up like apple quiche, which if you’ve ever tried, is not delicious. I’ll retry soon though, hopefully with better results.
Hi, it’s me Casserroo. My husband and I just finished eating this for dinner. We enjoyed it alot. We thought it was delicious. Here is what I did with the recipe. I added 1/2 cup of brown sugar, a tsp of cinamon and a 1/2 tsp of vanilla to the batter. I did this because I used very tart granny smith apples. I think next time I will try mixing the batter with my electric mixer instead of using the blender. The batter did not fluff up as much as it should have. We will be eating the other half for breakfast in the morning. Thank you for the delicious dinner and breakfast!!!
I added a little brown sugar and cinnamon with the apples. It is just so yummy!
Hubby said to make this again. I added cinnamon like one of the other reviewers. The syrup made it sweet enough but I think I’ll add some sweetner to the custard next time.
