Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- Powdered sugar or maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar. Toss to coat the apples evenly. Spread the apple mixture in the prepared baking dish.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter over the apple mixture in the baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pancake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the pancake to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm, topped with powdered sugar or maple syrup.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk or add a splash of heavy cream.
- You can substitute the apples with pears for a different twist.
- This pancake can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
