Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon until smooth.
3. In a large oven-safe skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat and add the sliced apples. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, and sauté until the apples are just tender, about 5 minutes.
4. Pour the batter over the sautéed apples in the skillet, then place the skillet in the preheated oven.
5. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.
6. While the pancake bakes, prepare the crumble by combining oats, flour, brown sugar, and cold cubed butter in a bowl, mixing until crumbly.
7. After 15 minutes of baking, carefully sprinkle the crumble over the top of the pancake and continue to bake until golden and crispy.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm!

Notes

Tip: Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra flavor and presentation.

For the best results, make sure to preheat your oven properly before adding the batter to ensure a fluffy rise. If you want to add a fun twist, try mixing in some chopped nuts or dried fruits into the batter or topping. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; simply reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
