Oven Pancake-- April 2010--Nikki

Okay, guys. This is what I call my loophole meal. It is the sole incarnation of breakfast for dinner that my brinner-hating husband will eat. It is kryptonite. And it is one of the easiest things I've ever made. Check it out, yo.



You will need:

1/4 C butter (half a stick)
1C milk
1C flour
6 eggs (yes, you read that right-- SIX EGGS)

And that's all! First, preheat the oven to 450 degrees, and then put the butter in a 9x13 pan and put it in the oven to get all melty. As the butter melts, put the remaining three ingredients in a blender and, well, blend.


Remove the now-melted butter from the oven, and pour the batter into the pan, stirring to distribute the butter evenly.


Bake it for 20-25 minutes, and VOILA!



Oh, man... this looks and smells DELICIOUS. And what was the verdict?

In fact, for the first time in awhile, we were ALL THREE clean-plate rangers! WOOO!


In short-- try this. Tomorrow. It is simple, and it is delicious. Sure, it will clog your arteries-- but you'll die HAPPY.

    This is great! According to Emma, anything you make in the blender is healthy. :)

  4. I made the puffed pancake this morning. I was a little worried when it came out of the oven with a huge hump in the middle but we loved it! We topped ours with blueberries, coconut and maple syrup. Very good. Thanks for the recipe!

  7. I have a similar recipe from a friend of German descent, it's called German Pancakes and it has an accompanying buttermilk syrup recipe that is like pure heaven on a pancake. You might want to try it! I'll try to remember to send it to you, or post it here in the comments when I'm home where my cookbooks are.
