It's time for another installment of Secret Recipe Club! This month I got Debby's blog, A Feast for the Eyes. It was super tough to chose only one recipes -- in fact I ended up making two! But it was hard to narrow it down to two recipes even! I had many, many ideas, both savory and sweet but ended up going with two sweet choices. Watch for the second recipe to be posted on Wednesday!
This first one is a breakfast I've had many a time at a pancake house and was excited to try to recreate at home for myself. It was great! It had great crispy edges and a tender texture inside. I really questioned if it would rise, since the batter didn't have any baking powder or baking soda, only flour and eggs, but it definitely did! It loses it's puff as it cools, but it still tastes delicious! We topped with powdered sugar and enjoyed!
Puffy Apple Pancake
from A Feast for the Eyes
serves 4
Ingredients:
1 large apple
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
powdered sugar
powdered sugar
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Peel, core and slice the apple into 1/4 inch thick pieces.
- Using an open-proof 10 inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices, making one layer and saute for 3-4 minutes, until beginning to soften.
- Turn apples over and add brown sugar and cinnamon to the mixture, stirring to coat apples with sugar. Continue cooking apples for 3-4 minutes longer.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs then add milk, flour and vanilla and whisk until lumps are broken up and mixture is smooth.
- Pour the batter on top of the apple and sugar mixture and place skillet in the oven to bake, about 15 minutes. The pancake will puff up and be golden brown on the edges.
- Remove from oven, cut into four wedges and serve with a dusting of powdered sugar.
