This crispy crusted baked pancake is full of buttery goodness and is delicious served with fresh fruit, whipped cream or simple hot syrup.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Butter
  • 6 whole Eggs
  • 1-½ cup 2 Percent Or Whole Milk
  • 1-½ cup All-purpose Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg (optional)
  • Choice Of Maple Syrup, Jam, Fresh Or Canned Fruit, Whipped Cream Powdered Sugar Or Lemon Wedges, For Topping

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Unwrap the butter and put it in a 12-inch cast iron skillet or a 13 by 9-inch baking pan. Place the pan in the oven to melt the butter, watching closely to prevent the butter from burning.

Place the eggs in a work bowl and whisk until just beaten. Add the milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and the optional spices and combine until just blended. The batter should be slightly lumpy, so don’t over mix.

Pour the batter into the pan with hot melted butter and put in the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until puffed up and golden. Serve immediately with choice of topping.
