Dutch Apple Pancake by Shandy

While browsing apple recipes last night, my daughter picked this one out. And luckily I had all the ingredients on hand. I made it for today's Brunch, and it was super duper delicious!!
I had sweet apples instead of the more tart Granny Smith apple. So I only used about a tablespoon of sugar to sauté the apples with- instead of 3 tablespoons. And I decided to drizzle with a little maple syrup instead of the powdered sugar called for.
It puffed up more to one side, probably to do with the apple placement- and it took about 30 minutes to bake.
The pancake itself is tangy, and you get a slight lemon flavour from the zest. Which would be super flavorful all on it's own. But the sweet, cinnamon-apple topping pairs so well with it!
Everyone LOVED it! :)

You guys are really tormenting me with all of these sweet goodies. This looks good, Cosmicmother. Nice photo! I've never had a Dutch Baby, but it's on my bucket list of foods to try.

I hope Points is ok Janet! He would probably love this Dutch pancake, it's a little different than the usual ones!

Thanks Diz! You will have to try one soon! I only put a tablespoon of sugar in the apple topping, and the pancake itself (in this recipe) has no sugar in it.
On AR, my favorite recipe is called Big Germans ---https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/20520/big-germans/ ---I like to bake it on a sheet pan with one inch sides (jelly roll pan). And sprinkle with lemon juice and powdered sugar, or fill with fresh fruit.. :)

There is little difference between a German/Dutch pancake and a Yorkshire pudding (Popover) . Except the addition of sugar in some pancake recipes. ;)
