Description

A warm, shareable skillet dessert combining tender baked apples with a rich brownie batter, baked in cast iron for crisp edges and a soft center.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 cups apples – peeled, cored and chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place an 8- or 9-inch cast iron skillet into the oven to preheat.
  2. Whisk together flour, white sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl; set this mixture aside.
  3. Beat together eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter in a mixing bowl.
  4. Toss the chopped apples and pecans in the flour mixture, then stir this apple mixture into the egg mixture until everything combines.
  5. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the preheated skillet, swirling to coat the pan surface.
  6. Pour the batter into the hot pan, and return the skillet to the oven.
  7. Bake until the sides appear dry and a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownie comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
  8. Cool the brownie in the skillet for 20 minutes before removing and slicing for serving.

Notes

  • This dessert is best served warm, straight from the skillet.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an added experience.
