Hello Jim,
Sorry, no luck finding the Village Inn recipe. There are, however, German apple
pancake recipes around. The one below is a good one. Add a tablespoon of brandy to
the filling if you wish.

German Apple Pancakes
Ingredients :
--Batter For Pancake:--
2 tbsp. butter
6 eggs
1 c. flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. milk
--Apple Filling:--
1 to 1 1/2 lbs. apples, peeled, cored and sliced thin (may substitute 1-2 cans Comstock apples)
1/4 c. butter or margarine
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1/8 tsp. each nutmeg and cinnamon
Preparation :
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine all ingredients except
butter in mixing bowl. Beat 2 or 3 minutes with an electric beater
until smooth. Melt butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet. As soon as
butter is melted and while pan is hot, pour in batter. Bake at 425
degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees and bake 40-45
minutes longer or until golden brown and crisp. If pancake puffs up
in center while baking, quickly puncture it with a fork. When done,
remove from oven and place on a platter. Spread with apple filling
and powdered sugar, if you wish. Cut in wedges and serve. Melt
butter or margarine in heavy saucepan. Saute apple slices in melted
butter or margarine over moderate heat for several minutes. Add
sugar and cook 5-7 minutes longer. Season with nutmeg and cinnamon.
Remove from heat and let stand until lukewarm before using.

Hi Karen,
I'm thinking that perhaps what you mean is something called
"Boston Brown Bread". It's made with molasses and is spongy,
more like cake than bread. Sometimes it has raisins. It's
sold in a can by the "B & M" company, and it comes either
with raisins or without raisins. It's most common in the
Northeast, where it is a traditional favorite, but I have seen
it in stores here in the South as well.
You can buy it online at the Vermont Country Store:

Hi Samanatha,
Gosh, thinking up name combinations is a bit out of my area. I did
a brief search on the web, and no one seems to be using that type
of naming thing for Mastiff/Shar Pei crosses, they just call them
"mastiff-shar pei crosses".
One thing to note is that the Shar Pei itself originated as a cross
between a mastiff and various Nordic breeds of dogs, so what you
basically have is 3/4 mastiff and 1/4 Nordic breeds - a "Nordic Mastiff".
