Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup cooked ham, chopped
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Gradually add the flour into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Stir in salt, black pepper, and dried thyme.
In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Tilt the pan to coat the bottom and sides with melted butter.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are bright green and slightly tender.
Stir in the chopped ham, ensuring it is evenly distributed across the skillet.
Pour the egg and flour mixture over the broccoli and ham. Do not stir. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pancake is golden brown and puffed up in the center.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the chopped green onions on top for garnish.
Serve immediately while puffed and warm. Slice into wedges and enjoy!
