Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1.5 cups fresh fruit (such as berries, sliced peaches, or chopped apples)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place a 9-inch oven-safe skillet or pie dish in the oven to warm while preparing the batter.
In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and no lumps remain, about 30 seconds. Alternatively, whisk vigorously in a mixing bowl.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and add the unsalted butter. Swirl it around until the skillet is evenly coated and the butter is fully melted.
Pour the batter immediately into the hot skillet, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and golden brown around the edges.
While the pancake bakes, prepare the fresh fruit. Wash and slice the fruit as needed and set aside.
Remove the pancake from the oven and allow it to cool for 1-2 minutes. It will deflate slightly, creating a bowl-like shape perfect for the fruit.
Fill the pancake with the prepared fresh fruit and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Optional: Drizzle a bit of lemon juice over the pancake for an added burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
