PUFFED APPLE PANCAKE



Puffed Apple Pancake image

I made this as part of my family's Sunday big breakfast. We really liked it we thought it was very yummy. I sprinkled my whole dish with 3 teaspoons powdered sugar. I think this would be perfect for brunch. I got this recipe from Bon Appetit. Sherry Sharp of Fremont, California, writes: "The Arroyo Village Inn is a lovely bed-and-breakfast in Arroyo Grande, California. During my recent stay there, I enjoyed the apple pancake made by the inn's owner, Gina. When she brought it to the table, it looked like a puffy soufflé. Once I had cut into it, I could see the sliced apples." This breakfast treat rises like Yorkshire pudding and has the texture of a classic baked pancake. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the pancake after it's baked, if you like.

Apple puffed pancake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast dish that can be enjoyed by everyone. This type of pancake is made with fresh apples, eggs, milk, sugar, and spices, and is cooked in a hot oven until it puffs up and turns golden brown.

History

The origins of the apple puffed pancake are not clear, but it is believed to have originated in Germany or France. In Germany, it is called a "Dutch baby," while in France, it is known as a "michel." The dish gained popularity in the United States in the 1960s and has since become a staple breakfast item in many households.

Ingredients

To make an apple puffed pancake, you will need the following ingredients:
Apples
Fresh apples are the star of this dish, and it is important to use the right type of apple. Granny Smith apples are a popular choice as they are tart and hold their shape well when baked. You can also use Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, or other tart apples.
Eggs
Eggs are an essential ingredient in an apple puffed pancake. They provide structure and richness to the dish.
Milk
Milk is used to thin out the batter and make it easy to pour into the hot pan. Whole milk or 2% milk works best.
Sugar
Sugar is used to sweeten the batter and balance the tartness of the apples.
Spices
Cinnamon and nutmeg are used to add warmth and depth of flavor.

Method

To make an apple puffed pancake, follow these steps:
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
2. Prepare the apples
Peel and slice the apples into thin slices. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and set aside.
3. Prepare the batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, ½ cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of nutmeg until well combined. Then, whisk in ¾ cup of all-purpose flour until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
4. Heat the pan
In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until melted and hot. Add the apple slices and sprinkle them with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Cook the apples until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
5. Pour the batter into the pan
Once the apples are cooked, pour the batter into the skillet, making sure it covers the apples evenly.
6. Bake
Bake the pancake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until it is golden brown and puffed up. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
7. Serve
Once the pancake has cooled slightly, slice it into wedges and serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.

Variations

There are many variations of apple puffed pancake recipes that you can try. Here are some ideas:
1. Apple Cinnamon Puffed Pancake
Add an extra teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter and sprinkle the apples with additional cinnamon sugar.
2. Apple Berry Puffed Pancake
Add fresh berries such as blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries to the skillet with the apples and cook them together.
3. Savory Apple Puffed Pancake
Omit the sugar and spices from the recipe and replace them with salt and black pepper. Add cooked bacon or sausage to the skillet with the apples and cook them together. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche.

Conclusion

Apple puffed pancake is a versatile and delicious breakfast dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and requires only a few simple ingredients. Try different variations to find your favorite flavor combination.

Valuable Tips for Making Apple Puffed Pancakes

Apple puffed pancakes, also known as apple Dutch baby pancakes or German pancakes, are a delicious and unique twist on the classic breakfast dish. They are a cross between a pancake, a crepe, and a popover, with a crispy outside and a fluffy inside. If you're interested in making apple puffed pancakes, here are some valuable tips to help you achieve the perfect outcome.
1. Use the Right Apples
The type of apples you use in your apple puffed pancakes can make a big difference in their taste and texture. You want to use apples that are firm and have a sweet-tart flavor, such as Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Braeburn apples. These apples will hold their shape and texture well during baking and complement the sweetness of the pancake batter.

Key Takeaway:

Choose firm and sweet-tart apples, such as Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Braeburn apples, for your apple puffed pancakes.
2. Preheat the Oven and the Pan
Preheating the oven and the pan is crucial in achieving the perfect rise and texture of your apple puffed pancakes. You need a very hot oven (around 450°F or 230°C) and a preheated cast-iron or oven-safe skillet to create the magic of the puffed pancake. The pan needs to be heated in the oven for at least 10 minutes before adding the batter and apples.

Key Takeaway:

Preheat the oven and the pan for at least 10 minutes before adding the batter and apples to ensure a crispy and puffed pancake.
3. Make the Batter Ahead of Time
Making the batter ahead of time allows it to rest and develop more flavor, resulting in a tastier puffed pancake. You can make the batter an hour or two before you plan to bake it and let it sit at room temperature. This allows the flour to absorb the liquid and makes the batter more stable, resulting in a better rise.

Key Takeaway:

Make the batter ahead of time and let it rest at room temperature for an hour or two before baking for a tastier and better rise.
4. Add the Apples at the Right Time
Adding the apples at the right time ensures that they cook evenly and retain their texture. You want to add the sliced apples to the preheated skillet with melted butter and sugar and cook them until they are slightly softened and caramelized. Then, pour the batter over the apples and bake until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.

Key Takeaway:

Add the sliced apples to the preheated skillet with melted butter and sugar and cook them until they are slightly softened and caramelized before adding the batter.
5. Do Not Open the Oven During Baking
Opening the oven door during baking can cause the puffed pancake to deflate and lose its height. When baking the apple puffed pancake, resist the urge to open the oven door and peek inside. Instead, rely on your oven light and the timer to determine when it is ready.

Key Takeaway:

Avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent the puffed pancake from deflating and losing its height.
6. Serve Immediately
Apple puffed pancakes are best served immediately after baking while they are still warm and puffed. They will begin to deflate as they cool, so it's best to serve them right away. Dust the pancake with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup or whipped cream on top.

Key Takeaway:

Serve the apple puffed pancakes immediately after baking to enjoy them while they are still warm and puffed.
Conclusion
Making apple puffed pancakes is a fun and delicious way to switch up your breakfast routine. By using the right apples, preheating the oven and the pan, making the batter ahead of time, adding the apples at the right time, avoiding opening the oven door during baking, and serving immediately, you can create the perfect apple puffed pancake every time.
