DUTCH OVEN APPLE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a medium bowl, beat the 3 eggs and milk until well blended. Add the flour and salt; stir until batter is barely blended (the batter should be slightly lumpy).
• In another bowl, toss apple slices with sugar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and cinnamon.
• Melt unsalted butter in a heavy, ovenproof 12-inch cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add apple mixture and saute 4 minutes, or until slightly softened. Spread out apples into an even layer; pour batter over apples.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until pancake is golden brown and puffed.
• Sprinkle with the juice of half a lemon and dust with confectioner's sugar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a 6-qt. Dutch oven, combine apples, 3/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. In a bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon; stir in eggs (mixture will be lumpy). Spoon over apples. Drizzle butter over batter (do not stir). Cover and bake until lightly browned and apples are tender, 45-50 minutes. Serve warm, with ice cream if desired.
