HNE Recipe: Quick Maple Apple Cake

• 3/4 cup pancake mix
• 1/2 cup milk
• 3 eggs
• 2 large apples (peeled, cored and thinly sliced)
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a 9 x 1 1/2 cake pan with non-stick spray. Place butter and thinly sliced apples into cake pan. Saute apples and butter over low heat on top of stove until apples are tender.

While apples are cooking, combine pancake mix milk, eggs, sugar, nutmeg, and cheese in a bowl. Batter will be lumpy. When apples are tender, sprinkle with nuts and pour maple syrup over the apples and nuts. Pour pancake batter over all and cover loosely with foil so cake has room to rise.

Bake in 450 degree F oven for 10-15 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Serve warm with a little extra maple syrup and/or whipped cream.
