Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Powdered sugar for serving (optional)
- Your favorite fruits for topping (berries, bananas, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grab a cast iron skillet or an oven-safe baking dish and place it in the oven to heat up.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until it’s nice and smooth. Don’t worry about a few lumps—they’ll bake right out!
- Once the oven is hot, carefully remove the skillet from the oven, and pour the melted butter into it, swirling it around to coat the bottom evenly.
- Quickly pour the batter into the hot skillet, and pop it back into the oven. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until it’s puffy and golden brown. You’ll know it’s ready when it’s all puffed up and the edges are starting to crisp.
- When it’s done, take it out of the oven and let it cool for a minute. The pancake will deflate a little—that’s totally normal!
- Slice it up, dust it with some powdered sugar, and serve with fresh fruits on top. You can even add a drizzle of syrup if you wanna get fancy.
