Servings: persons

3 Earl Grey tea bags, divided
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 apple - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
4 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pinch cinnamon

1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2
Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Place 2 tea bags in a bowl and pour hot milk on top. Steep for 5 minutes.
3
Carefully squeeze tea bags to release as much liquid as possible; discard tea bags. Let milk cool completely.
4
While tea is steeping in the milk, remove tea leaves from remaining tea bag. Grind into a powder using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. Combine 1/2 the ground tea with confectioners' sugar in a small bowl. Reserve remaining ground tea.
5
Whisk eggs, flour, tea-infused milk, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl until smooth. Pour batter through a mesh sieve to remove any remaining lumps.
6
Melt butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Immediately add apple slices, brown sugar, reserved ground tea, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Cook and stir until apples are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour batter on top and transfer the pan to the preheated oven.
7
Bake until pancake is set, puffed, and golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes.
8
Shake skillet to loosen pancake and transfer to a serving plate. Dust with Earl Grey-sugar mixture.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
