A delightful twist on the classic German pancake, this recipe offers enhanced flavors and a fluffy texture.
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Starting with a hot oven ensures the pancake rises properly.
Place the butter in an ovenproof skillet and let it melt in the oven.
Use unsalted butter for a balanced flavor.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, salt, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
Ensure there are no lumps in the batter for a smooth texture.
Pour the batter into the skillet over the melted butter.
Swirl the butter around the skillet before adding the batter to coat evenly.
Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.
Avoid opening the oven door while baking to maintain consistent heat.
Remove from the oven and serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Try powdered sugar, fresh fruits, or maple syrup for a delightful finish.
