Introduction

The tanginess of Zestar apples makes them a lovely centerpiece of this baked apple pancake, adapted from a recipe at Wednesday Chef (wednesday. typepad.com). Any firm, puckery apple will do well, including Cortlands, Romes, JonaGolds and Granny Smiths.

This recipe requires an ovenproof skillet, such as a well-seasoned cast iron. If you have Asian five-spice powder, you might consider using its more nuanced aromas instead of cinnamon.

Ingredients

    5 tablespoons melted butter, divided
    3 eggs, beaten
    3/4 cup milk
    1 tablespoon granulated sugar
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or Asian five spice powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
    2 apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
    3 tablespoons brown sugar
    3 tablespoons powdered sugar

Directions

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Combine 2 tablespoons of melted butter with the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and flour. Mix the batter by hand or in a food processor. Set aside.

Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter with the apple slices in a 10-inch oven-proof skillet until the apples are sizzling and slightly cooked. Pour in the batter. Sprinkle the top with brown sugar and bake until well browned and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes.

Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
