Apple Cinnamon German Pancake 6 Ingredients Easy Delicious

Indulge in the Delicious Goodness of Apple Cinnamon German Pancake. This decadent breakfast dish is a perfect blend of sweet apples, warm cinnamon, and a fluffy, custard-like pancake.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place a 10–12 inch oven-safe skillet or baking dish inside while preheating.

2. In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and set it aside.

3. In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are slightly softened.

4. Pour the cooked apples and butter mixture into the preheated skillet or baking dish. Carefully pour the batter over the apples, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.

5. Place the skillet or baking dish in the oven and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the Apple Cinnamon German Pancake is puffed and golden brown.

6. Remove the pancake from the oven and dust it with powdered sugar, if desired. Add chopped nuts for a delightful crunch, and drizzle with maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness. Top with a dollop of whipped cream for a truly indulgent experience.

7. Serve the Apple Cinnamon German Pancake warm, straight from the pan.

Notes

Choose the right skillet: Use a 10–12 inch oven-safe skillet or baking dish to ensure the pancake bakes evenly.

Blend the batter well: Take the time to blend the batter until it’s completely smooth for a light and airy texture.

Experiment with apple varieties: While Granny Smith apples are a classic choice, you can also try sweeter varieties like Honeycrisp or Fuji for different flavor profiles.

Serve it fresh: For the best texture and taste, serve the Apple Cinnamon German Pancake immediately after baking.
