German apple pancake campground recipe

The German Apple pancake, or Dutch Baby, was one of the more popular breakfast items when we owned our bed & breakfast. This adaptation of the German Apple pancake recipe is something we’ve made over our propane campfire with our cast iron pan hung over the fire by a tripod.

You can substitute a number of things for the apples in here as your travels take you to different places. For example, this is also great with pears that grow in our own area. Yum.

Of course you’ll want to serve this with a side of sausage or bacon.
