No reviews

A puffy, golden oven-baked pancake with crispy edges and a custard-like center, made with just 5 ingredients.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2–3 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole milk, at room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Lemon juice and powdered sugar, for serving

Instructions

  1. Place the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and put it in the oven while it preheats to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Blend the eggs, flour, milk and sugar for 30 seconds until smooth, or whisk vigorously for 2 minutes.
  3. When the butter is bubbling and lightly browned (about 5 minutes), remove the skillet and swirl to coat.
  4. Pour the batter into the center of the hot skillet without spreading it.
  5. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes without opening the oven door, until puffed and golden brown.
  6. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon juice and a dusting of powdered sugar.

Notes

Use room-temperature ingredients for a higher rise. The batter can be made up to 4 hours ahead and kept in the fridge.
