German Apple Pancake

• For Batter:
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup non-fat milk
• 2 tablespoons whipping cream
• 3/4 cup bread flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons wheat gluten
• 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• For Apples and cinnamon sugar:
• 3 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter
• 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, cut into
• 1/4-inch slices
• 3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons dark brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons superfine sugar
• 2 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon cornstarch

1. Preparation time: 30 minutes
2. Cooking time: 45 minutes
3. Yield: 4 servings
4. 1. Beat eggs until foamy with an electric mixer (with the whisk attachment, if you have one) on medium speed; add milk and cream, beating until well blended. Sift flour, gluten, confectioners' sugar, salt and nutmeg together in a medium bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture, beating on low speed, until well blended, about 2 minutes. Set aside 15 minutes.
5. 2. Meanwhile, heat oven to 300 degrees. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in an 8-inch non-stick oven-safe skillet over medium heat; add apple slices. Cook, turning occasionally, until apples begin to soften but not brown, about 4 minutes; transfer to a bowl.
6. 3. Meanwhile, stir together the brown sugar, superfine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sift the cornstarch into the mix; blend thoroughly with a fork. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons of the butter in a small saucepan. Slowly pour butter into the cinnamon-sugar mixture, stirring with a fork until it resembles a streusel like topping; spread the mixture over the bottom of the skillet. Layer apples (without piling up in the middle) over the sugar mixture to cover the bottom of the skillet.
7. 4. Pour the batter over the apples. Place skillet in oven; reduce heat to 250 degrees. Bake 30 minutes. Remove from oven; cover with foil to keep warm. Increase oven heat to 500 degrees. Lower heat to 450 degrees. Return pancake to oven; bake until pancake puffs and edges begin to brown, 12-15 minutes. Remove pan from oven, carefully invert pan onto a platter or plate.
