Pancake - Oven-baked Dutch Apple

Ingredients:

• 3 eggs
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup milk
• 1 tablespoon sour cream
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• Powdered sugar for dusting

Apple Filling:

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 large firm, tart apples, peeled halved cored and thinly sliced
• 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400. Start with the filling - melt the butter in a 10-inch ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the apples, sugar, and cinnamon and saute, stirring constantly, until the apples begin to soften and brown lightly, 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

To make the pancake, in a bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed, beat the eggs. Add all of the other ingredients and beat until just smooth. Immediately pour over the apples in the hot pan, and place in oven. Bake until nicely puffed and golden brown, ~25 minutes. Lightly dust with powdered sugar, serve.
