Skillet Puff Pancake

Okay, the ingredients that make up this recipe don't scream healthy. BUT - whipping this up for breakfast instead of a few pancakes from a box is MUCH better and oh so decadent! Serve with some fruit and it will be easier to justify :) I hope to be treating us to these this week-end. Enjoy!

Skillet Puff Pancake
  • 2 large eggs (@ room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (@ room temperature)
  • dash of salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1. Heat the oven to 450 degrees 15-30 minutes before making and put a 10-12" cast iron skillet in to heat.
2. In a bowl, beat the eggs, flour, milk, and salt. It's important to mix all the ingredients together at once; otherwise, your pancake won't puff. The more air you beat into the batter, the higher it will rise in the oven.
3. When the skillet is hot, toss the butter into it and  let it melt. Pour the batter into the skillet and return it to the oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden. Cut in half and serve immediately with warm maple syrup or fruit. ENJOY!
