Austrian Apple Pancake

I love breakfast foods. Which is a little strange, since I don't love mornings so much. 

My beautiful sister gave me a box FULL of apples a couple weeks ago, so I've been trying to find yummy recipes to use up all those gorgeous apples. This one is definitely a winner. My little son keeps yelling, "More cake, Mommy. More CCAAKKEEE!" I'd say it's a hit. Enjoy!
