Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2/3 cup 160 ml milk
  • 2/3 cup 85 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Position the rack in the center.
  2. Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and let it melt while the oven warms.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and salt until the batter is perfectly smooth.
  4. Carefully remove the hot dish from the oven, swirl the melted butter to coat the bottom and sides, then pour in the batter.
  5. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are puffed up and the top is a light golden brown.
  6. Slice into wedges, dust with powdered sugar or serve with maple syrup and fresh berries.
