Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1 cup whole milk

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Powdered sugar, for serving

Fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries) for garnish

Maple syrup, for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or oven-safe baking dish inside to heat up.

    Whisk the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined. The batter should be light and airy; avoid overmixing.

      Melt the butter: Once the oven has preheated, carefully remove the hot skillet or dish. Add the butter to the skillet and return it to the oven for about 2-3 minutes until the butter is completely melted and bubbling.

        Add the batter: Quickly pour the prepared batter into the hot buttered skillet, making sure to spread it evenly.

          Bake: Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and golden brown.

            Serve: Once baked, remove the pancake from the oven. Let it cool for a minute, then dust generously with powdered sugar. Serve warm with fresh berries on top and a drizzle of maple syrup.

              Enjoy: Slice into wedges and serve immediately for the best experience!
