It was a huge hit for my boyfiend and his kids Christmas morning. Most of the work is done the night before - so it is so easy the next morning just to put it together and bake.
Ingredients:
4 apples (cored and sliced in 1/2 inch slices.)
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon sugar (for apples)
1/4 cup sugar (for batter)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (for apples)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (for batter)
1/2 cup milk
1 1/4 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
maple syrup or currant jelly, if desired
Directions:
1. The NIGHT BEFORE: Saute apples in 2 TBS of butter, 2 TBS of sugar, and cinnamon.
2. Cook until lightly browned and apples are soft.
3. Cool. Once cooled, transfer to covered container to refrigerate overnight.
4. In separate bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla and milk together.
5. Sprinkle in flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until smooth.
6. Melt the remaining 2 TBS of butter, cool and then add to mixture. Whisk all together. Cover bowl and refrigerate overnight.
7. The NEXT MORNING: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a deep dish pie plate or pan.
8. Pour egg mixture (batter) into pan.
9. Place apple wedges on top in pinwheel design.
10. Place in oven and bake for 25 minutes. Top should be browned and puffed. Dust with sugar and serve with maple syrup or jelly on side.
