This morning it was overcast and a little chilly, so I decided to make something warm and comforting for breakfast.

I had one-half of
a raw Fuji apple that I needed to use and I thought of this riff on a baked
apple pancake. I photographed each step so you can follow along:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
Core the apple and cut thin slices – I prefer to leave the
skin on.
In an ovenproof skillet, melt 1 Tablespoon of butter and add
the apples in a single layer to the pan.
Sprinkle with 1-2 teaspoons of
cinnamon sugar.
Cook about 5 minutes and then flip them over and cook a few
more minutes.
While the apples are cooking, put milk in glass measuring
cup or a medium bowl and mix in egg.
When egg and milk are beaten together, add baking mix and mix just until
blended.
Pour batter over apples in pan and sprinkle with a little more cinnamon sugar.
Bake about 15 minutes until set and pull out of oven.
You can flip onto a plate or cut into
slices and flip them over when you put them on the plate.
Serve with syrup or jam or fruit medley. I served with blackberry jam –
Yummy!
Recipe Details Follow for 1 to 2 servings cooked in a 6-8 inch skillet:
One-half raw apple
½ cup milk (you can substitute non-dairy milk of your
choice)
1 egg
1 cup baking mix (I used Trader Joe's multi-grain baking
& pancake mix; you can use any baking mix)
Cinnamon-sugar mix (buy pre-made or mix 1 part cinnamon to 2
parts sugar)
1 tablespoon butter (you can substitute any oil or margarine
but the taste may vary)
Note: This recipe can be doubled and cooked in a 10-12 inch
skillet
Yes you can have baked apple pancake during the week!
Until next time… may you find
enjoyment in food and nature,
Marla
