Ingredients
Scale
- 3 eggs
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Pinch of Nutmeg
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice, for topping
- 2 teaspoons powdered sugar, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425° Fahrenheit
- While oven is preheating, add whole milk, eggs, and vanilla to mixing bowl and mix until yolks are broken and everything is well combined.
- In separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, and nutmeg and combine.
- Slowly add dry ingredients into wet ingredients and whisk until everything is well incorporated and set aside.
- Once oven is preheated, add 4 tablespoons of butter to 10" cast-iron skillet.
- Put in middle rack of oven until butter is melted.
- Take skillet out and add batter to skillet.

- At 20 minutes, turn the oven off and allow the pancake to sit in the closed oven for 5 minutes

Notes
- Get yourself a cast-iron skillet [Amazon Affiliate Link] if you don’t already have one!
- I added dry ingredients into wet. Feel free to do the opposite. No big deal.
- Use pot holders when handling your hot cast-iron.
- When removing the pancake, use a good metal spatula to slide underneath and make sure nothing sticks.
- Top with a little lemon juice and powdered sugar, but syrup works well, too.
