Description

Soft, pillowy batter baked around juicy cinnamon apples creates a golden pie that’s as simple as it is satisfying. Each warm slice offers a gentle crunch, sweet warmth, and a comforting aroma of vanilla and spice.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups peeled and sliced apples
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and egg to the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
  4. Pour the batter into an ungreased 9-inch pie dish.
  5. Arrange the sliced apples evenly over the batter.
  6. Sprinkle ground cinnamon over the apples.
  7. Cut the butter into small pieces and dot them on top of the apples.
  8. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the center is set.
  9. Let the pie cool for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
  • You can swap apples for pears or peaches for a different flavor.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a gluten-free version, replace the flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend.
