To prepare the topping, place butter in a 9-inch microwave-safe pie pan. Microwave on high for 45-60 seconds, or until
butter is melted. Stir in apples, sugar and cinnamon. Cover and
microwave on high for 3-4 minutes, or until apples are tender.
To prepare the batter, place pancake mix, water, vanilla and
cinnamon in a medium bowl and blend with a wire whisk.
Pour evenly over the cooked apples.
Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3-5 minutes, or until a
toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand
for 3-5 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Optional
serving suggestion: Sprinkle with additional cinnamon and
confectioners’ sugar. Makes 6-8 servings.
Tip: To use a conventional oven, preheat to 350°F. Prepare
apple topping as directed. Bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes, or
until apples are tender. Prepare pancake batter and pour evenly
over the cooked apples. Bake, uncovered, for 13-15 minutes, or
until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Good Morning Apple Cake
“I just love it and serve it
up with whip
cream. It is so
moist and the
little crunch or
texture of the
apple makes
the difference.”
