Apple Pancakes Apfelpfannkuchen Recipes

GERMAN APPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Grease/spray a 13x9 baking dish.
• Core, peel and slice apples.
• In a medium bowl combine apple slices, 1/4 cup butter (half the stick), brown sugar and cinnamon. In the microwave, heat on high for 3-5 minutes till apples are tender - stirring twice during cook time. Alternately you can do this stovetop in a skillet .
• Mix apple mixture well and spoon evenly into baking dish.
• In a medium/large bowl - combine remaining ingredients. Mix until well blended. Pour or spoon evenly over apple mixture.
• Bake for 25 - 28 minutes. The middle should be set and the pancake should be puffed up and edges nicely browned.
• Let sit for a few minutes before cutting. I think this pancake is perfect served as is - but you could sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar. Enjoy : )

APFELPFANNKUCHEN (GERMAN APPLE PANCAKES)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together flour, milk, water, and egg yolks.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff peaks form. Fold the beaten egg whites into the flour mixture.
• Heat roughly ¼ Tbsp of butter in an 8" skillet over medium-high heat.
• Arrange some of the apple slices in the hot skillet. Let the apple slices caramelize for 30-45 seconds.
• Spoon enough batter into the skillet to fill the entire pan in a ¼ - ½ inch layer. (The batter will be stiff from the egg whites and will need to be spread evenly with a spatula to thin it for consistent cooking.)
• When edges start to turn golden and the center is mostly dry, about 4-5 min, carefully flip the pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes on the second side. Then, slide the pancake onto a serving platter.
• Keep the pancakes warm in a low oven while you make the rest of the pancakes, adding a little butter to the skillet before each set of apples and batter. (As the pan gets hotter, you may need to reduce the heat slightly to keep the apples from burning.)
• Sprinkle the pancakes with cinnamon sugar to serve.
