What to do with pancake mix? Part 2

It's funny how weekends are supposed to be filled with relaxing downtime, but they often end up being busier, but more fun, than the work week!  We've had an exciting weekend hanging out with friends and family!  In fact, some of them are still hanging out in our kitchen.  We also got to eat out at some really great restaurants.  But don't worry What's for Leftovers readers, I still managed to squeeze in a couple of new recipes.  This one is a variation of a recipe I read in a Guideposts a while back.  It's called a Finnish Pancake.  I told Celia and Charlie it was a 'GIANT' pancake.  No matter what you call it, it's delicious.  After you finish baking it, make sure you let it completely cool.  This gives the inside time to settle.  Top with fried apples and powdered sugar for a breakfast treat or a great dessert!

Fried Apples
Ingredients:
8 Medium Apples
1/4 Cup Honey
2 TBSP Butter
1/2 Cup Water
Pinch of Salt

1. Spray a large frying pan.
2. Peel Apples.  Cut into large slices and put into frying pan.
3. Add honey, butter, water and salt.
4. Cook on high heat until water has evaporated.  While cooking, stir frequently so apples don't burn.  Lower heat and continue cooking until apples are soft and smell like apple pie filling.
