Description

This is the recipe my mom made for us every Christmas growing up. It takes 5 minutes to prep and kids love the puffy corners! 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 5 Tablespoons butter 

Instructions

  1. Place an un-greased 9×13 baking dish in your oven and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, with the empty pan in there.
  2. Prepare your batter.
  3. Place the eggs, milk, flour, salt and vanilla in a blender and combine until smooth.
  4. Once the oven reaches 450, melt the butter in the pan until hot.
  5. Pour batter into baking dish, over the hot, melted butter. Don’t just dump it into one spot – pour in circles or figure 8s, swirling as you pour. This creates the characteristics peaks — the best part! – throughout vs. just in the corners!
  6. Bake, for 22-25 minutes or until edges are golden brown and puffy.
  7. Serve with berries, maple syrup, and/or powdered sugar. Fresh lemon juice squeezed over powdered sugar is also a really good combo!
