Baked Apple Pancake ~ Cast Iron Baking
Baked Apple Pancake
When it's a special day for someone you love ~ birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, your anniversary ~ whatever it may be it's always a great way to start the day with breakfast in bed. This recipe is perfect for just that purpose or any day you're looking for an easy and delicious breakfast.
I remember when my oldest son was only 11, I was a single Mom and afraid....not sure of so many things, missing my own Mom who had passed away 9 years earlier, and my JR woke me up (along with his then 2-year-old brother) to breakfast in bed. Eggs (slightly burnt), toast (sorta burnt) and coffee were on a cutting board (the tray). They made a card for me and came into my room with huge smiles across their faces.
That morning will always be one of my favorite memories as a Mom and to this day makes me smile from ear-to-ear! So, whether you surprise Mom with this recipe or something else, you'll make her happy.
So let's get moving with the recipe...

One more thing to make this breakfast a success ~ don't forget the coffee! If you know me at all you know I love good coffee. When I used to drive my oldest son to his first job some mornings I was up at 5:30 a.m. to get him there by 6 o'clock. Thankfully, across the street from where he worked there was a Dunkin’ Donuts.

Thanks so much, Diane! It was so good. I had to stop myself at one serving but thankfully, my boys finished it off for me 😉 There was nothing left and I so agree about the aroma of coffee. It is one of my favorite scents by far.
Blessings to you as well ~ hugs, mb
Yum! I've made a baked pancake that had berries in it, but this one is made differently. Sauteing the ingredients on the stove before baking them always adds more flavor. This is a recipe I'll have to try!
Hope you had a nice Mother's Day, Mary Beth!
Thanks so much, Jamie! I did have a nice Mother's Day ~ thank you so much for asking.
