Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Milk
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt until combined.
Step 3
In a separate large bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and frothy.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Step 5
In the meantime, place the unsalted butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Put the dish in the oven for 2 minutes, or until the butter has melted completely.
Step 6
Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven, swirling the melted butter to fully coat the bottom and sides of the dish.
Step 7
Pour the pancake batter into the hot, buttered dish. Place it in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed up and golden around the edges.
Step 8
Remove the dish from the oven. Allow the pancake to cool slightly—it will settle as it cools.
Step 9
Slice into squares or wedges and serve warm. Garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar or your favorite toppings like fresh berries, whipped cream, or syrup.
