I've been making this for years and my family loves it. I looked it up at Allrecipes today to find out how to scale it upward. I modify this way -- I slice the apples and toss them with 1/4 tsp allspice and the cinnamon. Then heat the butter in the oven to melt, then add the apple slices and heat apples until they sizzle. Then I add the batter and and top with brown sugar and bake at 425 for 20 mins. DELISH!!

I made this for my husband and our friend for breakfast and it was delicious. I added nutmeg and used brown sugar rather than white in the batter.

This is my grandma's exact recipe that we used to make on Christmas morning. It is a comfort food to me that I whip up for a quick breakfast for dinner.

I guess you shouldnt have named this a cake. If you have ever been to the original house of pancakes this is describing "the big apple" I have made this before but modifies alittle only taking butter,double cinnamon and brown sugar and add a tablespoon of regular sugar and roll apples in that and bake for 10 min then add egg mixture. end result will look like cake but quickly deflate . cover with powdered sugar and enjoy!

This turned out great for me but was better the first day than as leftovers the next. I used 2-3 cups of dries apple slices that I have in my food storage instead of fresh apples. I think that might be the key to keeping from being soggy.

My family thought this was great. We used dried apples from our food storage instead of fresh apples too!

My family and I really enjoyed this one, but I made the changes Caire suggested (and added even more cinnamon since we love lots of flavor). The 5 star rating is with the changes. It really becomes a different recipe after being changed so much. I kind of question how well it would work without those changes. By the way, my apple and butter mixture floated to the top when I poured in the batter. I didn't expect that, but it worked out great.

Fast and easy. My baby daughter loves it. Be careful scaling the recipe. I made the mistake of scaling it down and then using too big of pan.

The apple puff pancake tasted delicious. My husband, however, didn't like the custard like aspect to it - the "egginess" that everyone else commented on. He thought that the egginess of it was bland. But, that was my favorite part. I would make it again, but I might try using less eggs to make my husband happy. Also, I only made half the recipe and it filled 3/4 of my 9X9 Pyrex dish.

There were quite a few eggs in this recipe which made it a little less "puff" than I was expecting. I would maybe cute the eggs to 4-I still need to play with the adjustments. The brown sugar and apples were great in the morning though!

This was so delicious! Similar to a recipe I made before, but just as good. This one with cinnamon in the batter was delicious! I did. blend the liquid ingredients until smooth, and baked it longer than the suggested time. I also added some cinnamon to the brown sugar topping. We devoured it. It's delicious cold or reheated as well. A keeper!

This is not that good. Too egg-y. I cut the recipe in half and it puffed to 3/4 of a 9x9 pan. I don't see how a full recipe would work at all. There is a much better recipe out there that calls for pouring a batter over melted butter, topping that with thinly sliced microwaved apples and then sprinkling it with cinnamon sugar. It is fabulous. Our guests have all loved it. Great with peaches also.

took it out in 20 minuets and still runny -- put back in and browned about 5 to 7 minuets longer - turned the center into custard and was very good - gave leftovers to daughter and family they loved it also - thanks for a good breakfast-
