You of cos, can choose whichever method as desired. - - Slice the apples into halves. - - Place them immediately, cut side down on the skillet. - - The apples will oxidize fast, especially on the cored and cut sides. Do it this way will slow down the oxidization.
4. You may need 3 or 4 apples, depending on the size of your apples and skillet. - - Once all the apples are prepped, turn the heat up to medium. - - Cook until the bottom is golden brown. - - You may have to rotate the skillet to allow even browning.
5. Once bottom is golden brown, flip. - - Add in 2 TBSP of calvados and let it flambe. - - Be very careful will doing this. - - Once bottom is lightly browned, remove from heat and set side on a plate lined with kitchen paper or wire cooling rack, cut side up.

10. Spoon the batter over the apples, making sure all the nooks and crannies in between each apples are filled with the batter. - - Smooth the top surface with an offset spatula. - - If your cast iron skillet comes with non-metal handle, wrap the handle with aluminium foil.
