Poofta Baby!

I don’t think that anything wakes people up on the right side of the bed or gets them in a better mood than the smell of something being cooked for breakfast. Sometimes that means getting our lots of things, but a recipe like this is really simple.

Dutch Baby Pancake with Apples and Cinnamon

INGREDIENTS:
Pancake:

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbs unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbs granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Apple Topping:

  • 2 apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tbs unsalted butter
  • Confectioners’ sugar (for dusting at the end)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, sugar and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  2. Butter a 9-inch round pan (or a cast-iron skillet, I didn’t have a skillet so I just used a round pan) and preheat your oven to 400 deg F.
  3. Pour your batter into the prepared pan, and bake for 20 – 25 minutes, or until the pancake begins to puff up’
  4.  While your pancake is baking, prepare your apple topping. Peel and thinly slice your apples, and saute them in a small pan with the butter, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
  5. Cook until the apples are soft.
  6. Once the pancake is done, sprinkle it with the confectioners’ sugar and top with cooked apples and serve!

Quick Tip: This can be made in a big skillet or in small ramekins for individual servings.
