Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 380 °F, place an oven-safe skillet in it and let it get hot.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups milk, 3 eggs, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar, ½ Tablespoon lemon zest, ⅛ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well using a hand whisk or an electric mixer with a whisk attachment.
- Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and place it on a wire rack. Put 1 teaspoon unsalted butter in a well-heated skillet and let it melt. Pour the batter over it, about two ladlefuls. Allow the batter to spread evenly across the entire surface of the skillet.
- Place the skillet with the batter in the oven to bake. In 10-15 minutes, the pancake will rise and turn golden around the edges. Once this happens, you're done!
- Transfer the Svítek pancake to a plate and top with fresh blueberries. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
Notes
- SERVING:
- The basic recipe makes 2 servings (each 8" / 20 cm diameter pancake).
- SERVING: For best enjoyment, serve the puffed pancakes as soon as they come out of the oven. Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar and scatter a handful of blueberries on top. Slice the pancakes into wedges and place on plates.
- While the fluffy part of the pancake may settle as it cools, rest assured that it won't diminish the delicious flavor. These pancakes are at their best when eaten warm.
- If you have leftover pancakes, let them cool completely, wrap them and store them in the refrigerator. Best to eat within three days.
- I do not recommend freezing the pancakes.
