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