German Apple Pancake

Submitted by DrGaellon

"This "pancake" (which is more like a Yorkshire pudding or clafoutis than an American-style flapjack) is an easy, stress-free brunch, especially in fall when apples are abundant and delicious. The size of your pie plate will determine the thickness of the pancake, and therefore the length of time it needs to cook.
