Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet or similar oven proof pan

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher or sea salt
  • 2 tablespoon powdered (confectioner's) sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. While the oven preheats, place your empty skillet in the oven so that it gets very hot. Prepare the batter.
  • Place the eggs, flour, milk, salt, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl and whisk until smooth. You can also toss the ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth (scraping down the sides). Let the batter rest while the oven is preheating.
    3 large eggs, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup milk, ¼ teaspoon Kosher or sea salt, 2 tablespoon powdered (confectioner's) sugar, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • When the oven is finished preheating, add the butter to the skillet and let it melt completely. When it's melted and bubbling, add your batter directly over the butter-do not stir. Place the skillet back in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until it is puffed around the edges and golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
    3 tablespoon unsalted butter

Notes

Your puff pancake will rise in the hot oven and start to deflate after you take it out. This is completely normal. Top with your favorite toppings and serve immediately.
