  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter.
  • Add sliced apples and raise heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring sometimes, until apples are golden, about 8–10 minutes.

  • Arrange apples evenly on the bottom of the prepared pie plate.
  • Wipe the skillet clean. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat.
  • Pour the melted butter into a blender. Add milk, flour, eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Pour the batter evenly over the apples in the pie plate.
  • Bake 25–30 minutes, until puffed and golden.
  • Let cool until warm. Dust with powdered sugar.
  • Slice into 6 pieces and serve warm.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

Cooking the Apples

Cook the apples until golden before adding them to the pie plate. This step builds more flavor and prevents soggy results.

Blending the Batter

Blending the batter makes it smooth and helps the pancake rise evenly in the oven.

Ingredient Substitutions

Apples

Gala apples work well, but Honeycrisp or Fuji can be swapped for a similar sweet taste.

Milk

Whole or 2% milk can replace skim if that’s what you have.

How to Store and Reheat

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place slices on a baking sheet, cover loosely with foil, and warm in a 325°F oven until heated through.
