Caramelizd Apple Stuffed Pancakes

This is a recipe that I found years ago out of a magazine. I don't remember which magazine but it looked so good that I gave it a try and changed things up a bit to my liking. It is such an easy recipe, with quick and easy prep and clean up.
I've used this recipe for breakfast, as well as breakfast for dinner. The kids love a chance to have breakfast for dinner, so this is a real treat.

Caramelized Apple Stuff Pancakes

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/4 cup of milk
1/4 cup of flour
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup of sugar
1 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp unsalted butter
about 2lbs. apples (4-5 apples) (skin can stay on, cored and cut into wedges)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
Powder sugar

*you will need a cast iron pan or an oven safe skillet (10-12 inch pan)
along with another skillet to use on the stove top.

Begin by heating your oven to 425 degrees.
In a blender, mix eggs, milk, flour, vanilla, salt, and the 1 tbsp of sugar. Set aside until needed.

Place the cast iron pan in the oven to heat up.
In separate skillet, medium heat, melt 2 tbsp of butter. Add the apples and cook until they begin to brown. Add the 3/4 cup of sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and ginger. Continue stirring, cooking until apples are tender and the juice has thickened.

Next, carefully remove the cast iron pan from the oven, melt 1 tbsp of butter, then pour in the batter from the blender. Return the pan to the oven, baking until puffed and golden (about 10-12 minutes)

Carefully transfer the pancake from the pan to a plate, spoon the apples over half of the pancake and fold over. Sprinkle powdered sugar over top and enjoy!

*This pancake feeds all 4 of us and there is sometimes a little leftover.


Enjoy!!
