  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • Powdered sugar (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, and salt until smooth.
  3. In an oven-safe skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.

Whisk the ingredients well to avoid lumps. A cast-iron skillet works best for even cooking. For extra flavor, consider adding vanilla extract.
