Sometimes you just don’t want to turn on the oven, but you can’t beat the sweet tooth. And it is precisely at such moments that the unobtrusive apple pie in the pan comes into play. It is based on completely ordinary ingredients that you almost always have at home, and at the same time it tastes as nice and homey as if it had been baked for many hours.
Sometimes you don’t feel like turning on the oven and still it’s useful to have a sweet dessert on hand for your afternoon coffee or as a quick stop after dinner. Apple cake in a pan is a simple recipe that will surprise you with the pure taste of apples and quick preparation. That’s enough a few basic ingredients, and in a few minutes you will have a soft, fragrant cake reminiscent of the homemade doughs that scented our grandmothers’ kitchens.

“For an apple pie in a pan, I recommend well-ripe, juicy apples. When they are too sour, the pie loses its natural sweetness. And if you mix them with cinnamon, you get a combination that will excite you,” chef David Šlapák told Recipe.
Fragrant cake with the taste of home
This cake is popular precisely because it does not require any complicated procedures or long baking. The apples in the pan soften beautifully, release their juice and form a naturally sweet layer. The dough will be soft and stays soft and fluffy. Thanks to the simplicity of the recipe, it will easily become one of those that are made regularly in the kitchen.
Pancake Apple Pie Recipe
Raw materials:
- 2 large apples
- 1 egg
- 3-4 tablespoons of sugar
- 5 tablespoons plain flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 vanilla sugar
- a pinch of cinnamon
- a piece of butter
Procedure:
Peel the apples and coarsely grate them. Mix them with cinnamon. Beat eggs with sugar and vanilla sugar in a bowl, add flour with baking powder and make a smooth dough. Melt the butter in a pan, pour the apples evenly over it and pour the batter over them. Close the pan and cook slowly over medium-low heat until the underside is golden brown. Then turn the cake over, preferably with a plate, and cook the other side as well. It is ready in about fifteen minutes.
Simplicity that works
The cake has a pleasantly pure apple taste and does not need any other ingredients. Lemon zest or a splash of rum can be added for a more pronounced aroma, but it is not necessary. The strength of the recipe is how well it works in its simplest form.
Apple pie in a pan is suitable for small kitchens, at the cottage or for moments when you need to prepare something sweet really quickly. Because it is only slowly roasted, it remains supple and tender all over. And precisely because of the quick preparation, it often becomes a dessert that disappears before the oven could heat up.
