Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200C and melt the butter in the tray inside it.

  2. 2

    Whisk the eggs, milk, sugar and salt, then whisk in the flour until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the batter into the hot buttered tray.

  4. 4

    Bake for 28-30 minutes until puffed, browned at the edges and set but custardy in the middle.

  5. 5

    Let it settle for 5 minutes โ€” it will sink, which is correct.

  6. 6

    Cut into squares and serve with jam and coffee.

Chef's tips

The tray must be properly hot; a cold tray gives a pale, rubbery pancake.

Ingredient substitutions

  • strawberry jam โ†’ any berry jam, or fresh berries and cream

Storage

Best fresh; keeps 2 days refrigerated.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • โ€ขOverbaking until dry
  • โ€ขExpecting it to stay puffed
