Chestnut Free Cinnamon-Cardamom Apple Oven Pancake

Warm spices, caramelized apples, and a dramatically puffed golden edge — this oven pancake is the kind of weekend breakfast that makes everyone wander into the kitchen asking what smells so good. The batter comes together in a single bowl with eggs, whole milk, flour, and a fragrant blend of Ceylon cinnamon and cardamom, then gets poured right over a skillet of buttery glazed apples before the whole thing goes into a screaming-hot oven. The result is somewhere between a Dutch baby and a fruit tart — crispy and airy at the edges, tender and custardy in the center. Every ingredient here is straightforward pantry and produce staple, so there's no need to scan labels or worry about unexpected tree nut additions sneaking into your morning meal. A dusting of powdered sugar and a spoonful of fresh ricotta at the end take it from simple to genuinely impressive without any extra effort. Serve it straight from the skillet in wedges and watch it disappear before it even has a chance to fully cool.
