Apple Cinnamon Deep Dish Pancake


This was our breakfast. Hubs liked it a lot which was nice. Here are some notes about the recipe:

Check it carefully and bake it until set. I had to bake it longer than the recipe suggested, but your mileage may vary. At the end, I baked it for a little while with the foil off.

It's listed as a winner of a "Cooking Light" magazine contest. This must be because of all the apples. That gives a moist texture.

This would probably be very nice baked in a similar size cast iron skillet. That's what I'm going to try next time.

I used soy milk instead of regular milk, and you can use six egg whites if you want to further reduce the fat/cholesterol content.

I used turbinado type sugar for the topping which worked just fine.

I'll bet that a combination of apples and raisins or apples and cranberries would be nice as well.

If you don't use Bob's Red Mill for your kitchen extravaganza on this one, use a pancake or waffle mix, my suggestion would be something other than bisquick because the mix has ten grains, dry milk, and leavening and doesn't have the shortening like a Bisquick would use.

For a brunch this would be nice, but I think you'll want a couple portions rather than just one! :-)
