1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Butter for accompaniment

Cooking Directions:

1. Sift together flour, 2 teaspoons sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Beat eggs and milk together in a medium bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture and beat until smooth; set aside.
2. Sauté apples in 1/4 cup butter until tender. Mix 2 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon together; stir into apples. Set aside.
3. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet. Pour in batter to a depth of about 1/4-inch. When set, place one-fourth of the apples on top then cover with more batter. Fry pancake until lightly browned on both sides. Repeat until all the batter and apples are used.
