Oven Apple pancakes

About the cook: I’ve lived in Turkey and India besides living most of my life on Vancouver Island. I feel like I have learned so much about cooking from grandmothers and friends. I love cooking and can literally replicate any dish I taste. My big problem is I cannot eat anything that is left over. This is tiring for me at times. 🙂

About the dish: This is our traditional Christmas morning breakfast. We also make this other times, but just when we are missing that memorable morning with presents, craziness, and family gathering.
