Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet or cast-iron pan inside the oven to heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and lemon zest (if using) until smooth and well combined. Let the batter rest at room temperature for about 5 minutes.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and add the butter, swirling the pan until the butter is melted and evenly coats the bottom and sides.
Pour the batter into the prepared skillet and immediately return it to the oven.
Bake the pancake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the pancake has puffed up in the center.
Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and allow the pancake to cool for a minute before slicing.
Serve immediately with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, a sprinkle of powdered sugar, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
