In the bowl of an electric mixer beat the eggs and then add the milk, salt and sugar. Sift in the flour, stirring to combine. Let batter stand for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Butter two 8 inch round pans (or use cooking spray along with the butter). Sprinkle pans with cinnamon sugar. Place apples in pan (1 used one apple per pan), sprinkle apples with cinnamon sugar and dot with butter. Pour batter over apples.
Step 4
Bake for 30 minutes or until top is golden and set. Cut into wedges to serve. We cut into 4 wedges per pan (8 wedges total) which worked for the four of us.

- Choose apples that are firm and ripe for the best flavor.
- If you don't have pre-packaged cinnamon sugar, you can make your own by combining 1/2 cup sugar with 3 teaspoons of cinnamon.
- Substitute almond milk for regular milk - Almond milk is a healthier alternative to regular milk and provides a delicious nutty flavor to the pancake.
- Substitute coconut oil for butter - Coconut oil is a healthier alternative to butter, and it adds a subtle hint of sweetness to the pancake.
Caramel Apple Pancake Replace the cinnamon sugar with 1/2 cup of caramel sauce. Drizzle the caramel sauce over the apples before pouring the batter over them. Sprinkle additional cinnamon sugar over the top before baking.
Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus - This savory side dish is a great accompaniment to the sweet and buttery Baked Apple Pancake. The salty bacon and earthy asparagus are a perfect complement to the sugary flavors of the pancake.
Maple-Glazed Carrots: This sweet and savory side dish is a great addition to the Baked Apple Pancake. The maple glaze adds a subtle sweetness that pairs nicely with the sugary flavors of the pancake, while the carrots provide a crunchy texture that contrasts the soft texture of the pancake.
