Ingredients
- 2 medium apples

- ¼ cup (60 mL) all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup (60 mL) whole wheat flour
- ½ tsp (2.5 mL) salt
- ¼ cup (60 mL) evaporated 2% milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) cooled, melted butter
- 3 egg whites, at room temperature

- Pinch (0.5mL) of salt

Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Cut apples in wedges and core. In a 10-inch oven-proof frying pan, sauté apples in 2-3 tbsp (30-45 mL) butter until lightly browned; remove from pan and set aside. Combine flour, salt and evaporated milk in a mixing bowl. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time; add melted butter.
- Step 2
In another bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar and pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks; beat in sugar and continue beating until whites hold stiff peaks. Fold into batter using rubber spatula.
- Step 3
Heat 2 tsp (10 mL) butter in the frying pan. Remove from heat and pour batter into pan. Arrange apple wedges over batter. Bake at 350°F (180°C) until pancake is set, about 20 minutes. Add syrup or icing sugar if desired.
