  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large apples (preferably Granny Smith or Fuji), peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter or non-stick spray for greasing
  • Optional toppings: powdered sugar, caramel sauce, whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin, evenly-sized pieces. Toss the apple slices with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Set aside.
  2. Whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined to form a smooth batter.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  6. Spread the sliced apples evenly in the baking dish. Pour the batter over the apples, ensuring they are fully covered.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use firm apples to prevent excess mushiness during baking.
  • Adjust the cinnamon and nutmeg to your taste preferences.
  • Make the batter thicker for a more bread-like consistency.
  • Toppings like toasted nuts or vanilla ice cream enhance indulgence.
