Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Milk
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 4 slices Bacon (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and sugar.
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Once smooth, set the mixture aside.
Crack the eggs into a small bowl and lightly beat them with a fork. Add the beaten eggs to the batter and mix until fully combined.
If using bacon, place the slices in a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish. Cook in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the bacon starts to crisp. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan and place it back in the oven for about 2 minutes, until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Carefully remove the pan from the oven and pour the pancake batter into the hot pan. If desired, crumble the cooked bacon over the top of the batter.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pancake is golden brown, puffed, and set in the center.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. The pancake will deflate slightly as it cools—this is normal.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Optional toppings include jam, powdered sugar, fresh berries, or a drizzle of syrup.
