Illustrated interpretation from the family cookbook.

Let’s make it

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Melt the margarine in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apple slices and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg; cook for 2 minutes.
  3. Combine the apple juice, water and cornstarch. Add to the skillet and bring to a boil. Cook for 1 minute, or until thick, stirring gently.
  4. Transfer the apple mixture to a bowl and keep warm. Wipe the skillet clean, then heat it in the oven for 5 minutes.
  5. Whisk together the flour and 1 cup milk. Add the remaining 1 cup milk, vanilla, salt, sugar, eggs and egg whites; whisk to combine.
  6. Coat the hot skillet with cooking spray and pour in the batter. Bake at 425°F for 25 minutes, or until puffed and browned around the edges.
  7. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges, top with the warm apple mixture and serve immediately.
