Ingredients

6 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 tablespoons butter, melted
6 to 7 cups sliced peeled tart apples (about 2-1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Confectioners' sugar and ground cinnamon

Directions

1

In a bowl, beat eggs until fluffy. Add milk. Combine flour, salt and cinnamon; add to egg mixture and mix well. Brush 3 tablespoons butter on sides and bottom of three 9-in. pie pans (using 1 tablespoon in each pan). Divide batter evenly between the pans. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden and puffy.
2

Heat remaining butter in a skillet. Saute apples for 10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Stir in sugar and continue cooking for 5 minutes or until apples are tender. Drain, reserving juice. Sprinkle apples with lemon zest.
3

When pancakes are done, layer on a serving plate, beginning with 1 pancake and a third of the apples. Repeat layers twice. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon. Serve with reserved apple juice, if desired.
