  • Toss apples with the sugar for apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch.
  • Whisk flour, the sugar for batter, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  • Pour in milk and vanilla. Whisk just until smooth; do not overmix.
  • Remove the hot pan and swirl to coat the bottom with melted butter.
  • Pour batter over the melted butter. Do not stir.
  • Spoon the apple mixture evenly over the batter.
  • Sprinkle brown sugar over the top for extra crunch.
  • Bake 40–45 minutes until golden, bubbling, and the center is set.
  • Cool 10–15 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Variation: Add 1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans with the apples, or swap half the apples for pears. Storage: Cover and refrigerate up to 3 days; rewarm in a 325°F oven until heated through.
