Pannekoeken is a German apple pie pancake that is simple to make and perfect for breakfast or dessert. This recipe is like a pancake and pie put together, with apple slices coated in cinnamon and nutmeg placed at the bottom of the skillet and covered with a light and fluffy batter. Brown sugar and butter are sprinkled on top and baked until golden brown. When the Pannekoeken is done, it will puff up and collapse slightly, creating a beautiful golden crust around the edges. Serve it hot and fresh from the oven dusted with powdered sugar and whipped cream for a decadent treat.
