Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
In a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the apple slices and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Sauté the apples until they are golden and slightly softened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar until smooth. Set the batter aside.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Pour in the batter and let it cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and bubble.
Scatter the sautéed apples evenly across the batter. Using a spatula, break the mixture into large chunks and flip them to cook the uncooked sides. Continue breaking and flipping until the pancake pieces are golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the Apple Schmarren to a serving platter, sprinkle with powdered sugar and cinnamon (if desired), and serve warm. Enjoy!
