Apple Pancakes

From Penzeys Spices



Ingredients:
1/4 Cup butter (1/2 stick), divided
4 eggs
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 Cup all-purpose flour
3/4 Cup milk
1/2 tsp. salt
2 medium baking apples, peeled and thinly sliced
3 TB. cinnamon sugar, divided

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°. Divide butter evenly between two 9 inch pie plates and put them in the oven to melt the butter. Rotate the pie plates until the butter coats the bottom and the sides. To make dividing the ingredients between the two plates easier, we used a 4-Cup measuring cup as our mixing bowl. Beat eggs, vanilla, flour, milk, and salt on medium speed for 1 minute. Toss the sliced apples with 2 TB. of the cinnamon sugar. Arrange 1/2 of the apple slices in each pan so they cover the bottom in pretty much a single layer. Pour 1/2 the egg mixture over the apple slices in each pan. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar over the batter in each pan. Bake until puffed and golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Serve right away, while still puffy, with warm syrup.

When Adam picked up juniper berries a while back he also picked up a catalog. This was a recipe that caught his eye. I had originally planned to make it last weekend, but luckily the apples toughed it out and were still good this morning. I used a deep dish pie pan so it doesn't look like the picture on their website, but it was still good. I cut everything in half to make only one, but we probably could have eaten two of them. Yum! Oh, and I didn't use butter - I just sprayed the pie pan with Pam and it worked fine.
