Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk flour, milk, eggs, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Let batter rest 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high until foaming, ~1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Pour 1/4 cup batter into the skillet, immediately tilt and swirl to spread thin. Cook until the bottom is light golden, ~90 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Flip and cook the other side 30 seconds. Slide onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter.

  5. Step 5

    In the same skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium. Add apples, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cook until soft and caramelized, ~6 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Stack pannenkoeken on plates, top with warm apples, and drizzle with maple syrup. Serve immediately.
