Ingredients

  • 1/4 1/4 cup butter

  • 1 1 cup milk
  • 1 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. While the oven is preheating, place the butter in a 9x13 baking dish and place in oven, just until the butter melts.
  3. In a blender, add the eggs, milk, flour, vanilla, and salt (and cinnamon if desired). Blend until smooth. This can also be done by hand in a large bowl but is a lot easier in a blender.
  4. Pour batter into the baking dish over the butter. Bake for 17-22 minutes or until the pancakes are puffy and golden brown.
  5. To serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar and add fruit or syrup.
