TWD - Apple Matafan




For Tuesday with Dorie this week, I made Apple Matafan.  This is a chunky, cakey, apple-packed pancake made entirely in a skillet on the stovetop.  It is sprinkled with icing sugar and optionally, drizzled with maple syrup (of course).

 I made one third of the recipe, enough for two.  Here's a peek inside:

It was delicious served warm, though I thought it definitely needed the maple syrup for moisture.  A word of warning - it is also very filling.  Don't be suckered into a double helping unless you are really hungry.

 To see what the other Dorie bakers made this week, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.

    Sounds great. It's new to me but would be delicious any time, I bet.

    I'm going to save this for the depths of winter when we need something filling and delicious. I've never heard of it before!

    Despite the fancy name, it's just a big apple pancake, right?! I loved this and will make it for a crowd for brunch again (it's very filling!).

    Pancakes are beloved in my house so I think this is going to be a winner. Thanks for the tip on serving size. Now should I make a full or half recipe? Hum...
