Tree Nut 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, and flour, then gets a fragrant lift from Ceylon cinnamon and cardamom that feels a little more refined than your average breakfast. The apples are cooked down in butter and sugar right in the skillet first, building a light glaze before the batter is poured straight over the top and the whole thing goes into a screaming-hot oven. Because every ingredient here is naturally free of tree nuts — no almond flour swaps, no hazelnut spreads, no "may contain" dairy alternatives — you can cook it without second-guessing a single label. A dusting of powdered sugar and a spoonful of fresh ricotta at the end add a creamy, slightly tangy finish that makes it feel almost like dessert. It bakes up impressive enough for guests but is genuinely simple enough for a slow Sunday morning at home.
