Apple Pancake!

This is SO good! It's not a quick easy meal to make for breakfast but it's well worth the wait! It's basically an upside down apple pancake! It's pretty big, when I make it I cut it into two and have one side for leftovers! You can use any type of apple you prefer, I like honey crisp so I use that. You also have to put a non-stick pan in the oven, which is fine, what I like to do is put foil over the handle just in case.


Ingredients:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
2 large eggs
3/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2teaspoon salt, plus a pinch
1/2 cup flour
powdered sugar

Directions:
1) Heat oven to 400C.
2) Melt butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
3) Add brown sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt; stir. Once the dry ingredients are incorporated in the butter, add the apples and spread them into a single later.
4)Cook without stirring until the apples begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are completely soft and maybe even a little caramelized.
5)Place all remaining ingredients and mix, about 15 seconds or everything is together and smooth.
6) Pour the batter evenly over the apples.
7) Place the skillet in the oven and bake until pancake is firm and puffed, about 10 minutes.
8) Invert onto plate, dust with powdered sugar, and serve.

Enjoy!
