JoSele's Notes:

This is one of my favorite pancakes, I love it with a Suzette sauce or the Apricot sauce....and a little Powdered Sugar sprinkled on top too...This pancake is best served while it is hot...I didn't have a picture handy so used a free stock picture till I do...

 

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 400*...Place (2) 9 x 1 1/2" cast iron skillets in oven....
2
Beat eggs well, add flour, milk, and salt in medium mixing bowl on medium speed for 1 minute...Remove skillets from oven.
3
Place 2 TBSP of butter in each skillet; move around till pans are coated well on bottoms and sides.
4
Arrange half of the apple slices in each pan; divide batter evenly between your skillets. Mix sugar and nutmeg; sprinkle 2 TBSP of sugar mixture over the batter in each skillet. Bake uncovered till puffy and golden brown....20 to 25 minutes

You can sprinkle with powdered sugar or serve with Suzette sauce or Apricot sauce on top.

YUM! I have always wanted to make a pancake like this ever since I saw Emeril make a peach pancake in his cast iron skillet.

That is what I like to use is cast iron because they brown evenly in the cast iron...

It is so yummy you can get it at the Village Inn restaurant...or you used to anyway...But when you make them it is even better...Because you can put as much sauce on them as you like...I love the sauce on them...

I remember getting this at Village Inn when I was a kid. But I don't think they put the apples into the batter, just put apple compote on afterwards. I'll have to give this a try for tomorrow's breakfast! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Made this for breakfast today. It was wonderful. I've made the baked egg type thing before, but never put the apples inside it. Definitely a recipe I'll make again.
