Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until they are well beaten.
- Add the milk and vanilla extract to the eggs and whisk again until well combined.
- Gradually add the whole-grain wheat flour and salt to the wet mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
- Once the batter is smooth, set it aside.
- Peel, core, and thinly slice the apple.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the sliced apple to the skillet and sauté for 3-5 minutes until they start to soften.
- Sprinkle the 0.40 cup (80g) of sugar over the apples and continue to cook for 2 more minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved and begins to caramelize slightly.
- Pour the prepared batter over the sautéed apples in the skillet.
- Immediately transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and golden brown around the edges.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Dust the top of the pancake with the powdered sugar for an added touch of sweetness.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm.
Tips:
- Ensure your apple is evenly sliced for uniform cooking.
- Use room temperature eggs to help the batter mix more smoothly.
- Preheat your oven well in advance to ensure the pancake rises properly.
- If you prefer, substitute whole-grain wheat flour with all-purpose flour for a lighter texture.
- Top with your favorite syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
- Consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for an added layer of spice.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for even heating and a beautiful presentation.
