Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 500 milliliters milk
- 3 large eggs
- 50 grams sugar
- 50 grams butter
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 225°C (435°F). Place a 9x13 inch (or similar-sized) baking dish in the oven to heat while you prepare the batter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until pale and well-combined.
Gradually add the flour and salt, whisking to prevent lumps from forming.
Slowly pour in the milk, continuing to whisk until the batter is smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Carefully remove the heated baking dish from the oven and add the butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, swirling it around the dish to coat the bottom and sides.
Pour the batter into the hot, buttered dish. The heat will help create crispy edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and golden brown on top. It will deflate slightly as it cools.
Allow the Pannukakkua to cool for a few minutes before slicing into pieces. Serve warm with optional toppings like fresh berries, powdered sugar, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
