#2781 - Baked Apple Pancakes

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 large granny smith apple
3 eggs (room temperature)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 TBSP butter (softened)
1/4 cup Domino's dark brown sugar (packed)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Domino's powdered sugar for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 450 degrees and place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Wash, peel, core and slice the apple very thinly. In a bowl add eggs, milk, flour and vanilla--stir with a whisk until smooth. In a 10" cast iron skillet add softened butter--turn heat to medium low and melt the butter. Spread the apple slices in the melted butter--cook/stir for about 4 minutes over medium heat, then turn apple slices over on to the other side and cook them 3 minutes longer. Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon over the apples--cook/stir apples until brown sugar melts. Remove from heat--stir the apples so they are all coated with brown sugar. Spread the apples out evenly in the pan. Pour all of the batter over the apples. Place the skillet in the oven and bake at 450 degress for 15 minutes or until mixture gets puffy and gets brown around the edges. Remove from oven and cut into wedges. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the top before serving.
