Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for topping)
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place the unsalted butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and put it in the oven for about 3-5 minutes or until the butter is completely melted. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
While the butter melts, prepare the batter. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
Carefully remove the hot baking dish with the melted butter from the oven. Swirl the dish to evenly coat the bottom and sides with butter.
Pour the pancake batter into the hot dish with the melted butter. The batter will begin to cook along the edges immediately.
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up, golden brown, and set in the middle.
Remove the pancake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. The pancake will deflate a bit as it cools, which is normal.
Dust the pancake with powdered sugar, top with fresh fruit if desired, and slice into portions.
Serve warm and enjoy!
