This recipe is good and my family scarfed down the entire thing in no time BUT next time I will definitely do two layers of apples since the thick layer of pancake did come out dry. Apples batter apples batter. I also tossed my apples in cinnamon before placing them in the dish which gave it a more even color I think. Will definitely make this again!

This was a great recipe! We all loved it. Even my 2yr old wanted more. So easy and little mess. This was a last minute dinner decision so I sub'd buttermilk for half the milk. used walnuts instead of pecans. dbl'd the cinnamon and baked for 25min. I also put the butter in my pie plate placed it in the oven while it preheated - that melted the butter just in time for me to add the other ingredients. plus less mess. I will mix the apples syrup and cinn. together first next time though. I can't wait to try this with other fruits and nuts. Seemed more like we had dessert first... no wonder the kids liked it so much:0) ooh put it in a bowl and drizzle with a little extra syrup and some cream... MMMMM!
I used 2 entire Granny Smith apples added a little Craisins left out the pecans (we don't like nuts) and it was yummy. We also used real maple syrup which makes a big difference (not as sweet as Aunt Jemima). Easy to assemble and delicious. Impressive enough for company.
Not bad. I feel as if it's missing an ingredient but now that I've realized I missed the boat on the maple syrup (don't have any--was going to add maple flavoring but forgot) I suppose that could be it. I do think however that a caramel bottom would be really good and add to the flavor--just add brown sugar on top of the melted butter like you would do for a pineapple upside down cake. I also added chopped apple and pumpkin pie spice to the pancake batter which I liked. Thanks for the recipe!
It cooked just fine though I think it needed more sweetness. Next time I may add some brown sugar to the apples. I used bisquick along with soy milk which I think gives any pancake a nice flavor.
I used my own whole wheat baking mix lowfat butter milk and I added a half teaspoon of nutmeg. (When I make this next time I might use apple pie spice instead of just cinnamon and nutmeg. I might do brown sugar instead of maple syrup too.) When I could I used all organic ingredients. This was very easy to make this morning it literally took a matter of minutes. Using an apple peeler and apple sectioner made it go super fast. My kids really thought this was great. I like making these because it's quick filling and when it's done all you have to do it cool it a bit then flip it out and cut it with a pizza cutter. Plus it's kid friendly for beginning cooks!
Dry. That is the way I felt about this recipe. I used 5 T. of syrup and baked 22 min. I used Bisquick for the mix...maybe a different pancake mix would help. The flavor was good but the texture was dry.
After reading all the reviews I was ready for a delicious pancake breakfast. But my family and I thought that it was way too dry and have made way better pancake recipes. Wouldn't recommend making this.
I made 2 versions. I made one just as stated in the original recipe. And the other as mentioned in one of the reviews I "layered." The original recipe was too dry for me as other people also commented so i topped it with more syrup. It was pretty good. The layered one (apples half of the pancake mix apples the rest of the pancake mix) was great!!! It wasn't dry and it had a lot of flavor. I didn't need to add any extra syrup at the end either. I did also follow of few of the suggestions other people gave for both versions: I Sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on the apples before layering I used walnuts instead of pecans and I used more maple syrup than recipe asked. This recipe was easy quick and delicious! I will definitely be making this one again!
