Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup milk

6 large eggs

1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon salt

Fresh fruit (berries or sliced apples, for topping)

Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure your pancake puffs up beautifully.

    Prepare the Baking Dish: In a medium oven-safe skillet or a 9x13 inch baking dish, add the melted butter. Swirl it around to coat the surface evenly.

      Blend the Batter: In a blender, combine the flour, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

        Pour the Batter: Pour the pancake batter directly into the prepared skillet or baking dish over the melted butter. Do not stir; the butter will rise to the edges for a crispy, golden layer.

          Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown. Avoid opening the oven door during baking to prevent it from deflating.

            Serve: Remove the pancake from the oven. Let it cool for a minute before slicing. Dust generously with powdered sugar and top with fresh fruits. Serve with warm maple syrup for drizzling.

              Enjoy: Slice into wedges and enjoy warm with your choice of toppings!
