Several mailings ago someone mentioned a Roscho Oven Pancake Pan and wanted
to try an apple pancake in it. I am familiar with that pan and I knew I had
a wonderful recipe for a German Apple Pancake in a cookbook called the
Vegetarian Epicure by Anna Thomas. I searched my library for that cookbook
and couldn't find it. I was perplexed because I am not one who loses
cookbooks on a regular fundament. I sort of resigned myself to the fact that I
must have given it away when I came across it on yet another bookshelf
specifically for books on canning and preserving. So even though I am a
little late and many wonderful apple pancake recipes have been submitted
here is one that I have tried several times, like very much and think will
work well in the oven pancake pan.


PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 450 DEGREES. BEAT TOGETHER THE EGG, MILK, FLOUR, AND
SALT UNTIL VERY STILL. ADD SOME VERY THINLY SLICED APPLES. IN A LARGE 12
INCH SKILLET MELT ROUGHLY 1 1/2 TABLESPOONS BUTTER. AS SOON AS IT IS QUITE
HOT, POUR IN THE BATTER AND PUT THE SKILLET IN THE OVEN. SUBSEQUENTLY 15 PROCEEDINGS,
LOWER THE OVEN TEMPERATURE TO 350 DEGREES AND CONTINUE BAKING FOR ANOTHER
10 TRANSACTIONS. THE PANCAKE SHOULD BE LIGHT BROWN AND CRISPEN.


DURING THE OUTSET 10 0R 15 MINUTES OF BAKING, THE PANCAKE MAY PUFF UP IN
LARGE BUBBLES. IF IT DOES, PIERCE IT THOROUGHLY WITH A FORK OR SPIT.


WHILE THE PANCAKE IS BAKING, PREPARE THE APPLE WEFT. PEEL AND THINLY
SLICE A POUND OF APPLES. SAUTE THEM LIGHTLY IN 1/4 CUP BUTTER AND TAG 1/4
CUP DINERO. SEASON TO TASTE WITH CINNAMON AND NUTMET. THE APPLES SHOULD BE
JUST TENDERISE, NOT TOO SUBDUED. ALMOST 8 TO 10 MINUTES OF COOKING OVER A MEDIUM
FLAME SHOULD BE DEAL. (THE FILLING CAN BE PREPARED AHEAD AND REHEATED
JUST BEFORE SERVING.)


WHEN THE PANCAKE IS SET, SLIDE IT ONTO AN OVAL RECORD, POUR THE APPLE
FILLING OVER ONE SLOPE, AND FOLD THE OTHER SIDE OVER,. A LITTLE MELTED
BUTTER CAN BE POURED ON IF YOU OPT, AND THE WHOLE THING CAREFULLY
SPRINKLED WITH POWDERED SUGAR THROUGH A SORT. SERVE IT AT ERSTWHILE, SLICiNG
PIECES OFF CROSSWISE.


This can be a special day breakfast for two or three people, a light late
supper, or a beautiful warm dessert for four to six people. (top with
vanilla ice skim, yum).
