Tales of a Babbling Spoon: German Apple Pancake

FF and I have been consuming more meat than a lion in a zoo this week.

To give our arteries a bit of a break it need, I decided to go meatless this weekend. This apple pancake is so filling and hearty, we did not complain.

Hmmmm. The smell of caramel apple and cinnamon is just so comforting it made us nostalgicl!
It reminds me of winter and of Christmas!

But why wait for Santa when you can have your present and enjoy it now?

My tummy is so happy it could sing!

I have a ~~pen~~ a pan , I have an apple.
Uh! APPLE-PAN!

Now, when you're done singing and wants to start cooking:
