Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful, hilarious, intelligent baby girl.
My little lady is turning two in two days. Two years ago at this time there was 3 feet of snow on the ground and I didn’t know if I’d ever pop.
German Apple Pancakes
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 2 apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
• 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• pink nutmeg
• 1 lemon wedge
Preheat oven to 450ºF. Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat, then add the apples and splash the maple syrup on top. Sauté until apples are tender, & add the cinnamon and nutmeg. Remove from heat & add the lemon juice.
While the apples are sautéing, mix up the batter with a whisk or in the blender:
• 1/2 c. flour
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 c. milk or half & half
• 2 Tbsp. brown sugar (optional)
Cover the bottom of a greased pie pan with the apple sliced & pour the batter on top. Bake in preheated oven until puffy & brown on the edges, about 15-20 minutes.
Serve with maple syrup or a squirt of lemon juice sprinkled with powdered sugar. Mmmm!
