Combine milk, flour, eggs, 3 tbsp. granulated sugar and almond extract in a bowl. Mix to blend well. Pour into hot, well-greased 10-inch skillet, tilting pan so that batter forms collar around sides of pan. Arrange apple wedges in layer over batter. Combine remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over apples. Bakes at 350 to 375 degrees until batter is set and surface is browned, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with jams and preserved if desired. (From the Beverly Hills Hotel.)
