Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups strawberries (fresh, hulled and sliced)
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet or oven-safe pan into the oven to heat up as it preheats.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Sift the flour and salt into the wet ingredients, and whisk until smooth and free of lumps. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven. Add the unsalted butter to the pan, swirling it around until the butter is fully melted and coats the bottom and sides of the skillet.
Pour the batter into the hot skillet and immediately return it to the oven. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown around the edges.
While the pancake bakes, prepare the creamy strawberry topping. In a medium bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with powdered sugar and lemon juice. Set aside.
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in half of the sugared strawberries for a creamy topping.
Once the pancake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. It will deflate as it cools, creating a perfect base for the toppings.
Spread the creamy strawberry mixture over the center of the puff pancake, and top with the remaining sugared strawberries.
Dust with additional powdered sugar if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Creamy Strawberry Puff Pancake!
