Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Use an 8 or 9-inch oven-proof skillet, preferably cast iron, ensuring it has no plastic handle.

In a food processor, combine 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup flour.

Process the mixture for about 1 minute until well combined and slightly aerated.

Slice 1 pound of Granny Smith apples into wedges, peeling them if desired.

In the skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.

Add the sliced apples to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and sauté until they soften slightly, but are still firm.

Pour the batter evenly over the sautéed apples in the skillet.

Immediately place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Do not open the oven door for the first 15 minutes of baking to prevent deflation.

Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm, optionally with whipped cream or yogurt.
