There are mornings when you want something that makes the kitchen smell good before you’ve even had your coffee. This is that breakfast.

Butter, cinnamon, and apples hitting a warm skillet. That smell alone is worth making it. The apples get just slightly caramelized before the batter goes on top, and what comes out of the oven is somewhere between baked oatmeal and a Dutch baby. Soft and custardy in the center, lightly golden on top, warmly spiced throughout.

Cozy in the best possible way, and built to actually hold you until lunch.
