Ingredients

For the Batter

4 large Eggs Fresh eggs are best for achieving that fluffy texture.
1 cup Milk Whole milk adds richness, but low-fat works too!
1 cup All-Purpose Flour Essential for structure; try gluten-free flour if desired.
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla elevates the flavor profile beautifully.
1 pinch Salt Balances sweetness and enhances overall taste.

For Baking

2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Adds richness and helps create a golden crust; coconut oil is a dairy-free alternative.

9x13 inch baking pan

Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and melt a couple of tablespoons of unsalted butter in a 9x13-inch baking pan for about 5 minutes.
Blend together 4 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, a pinch of salt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and frothy.
Pour the prepared batter into the hot baking pan with melted butter.
Bake in the oven for 22 to 27 minutes until puffed and golden brown, keeping the oven door closed during baking.
Check if the pancake is puffy and golden after baking, allow to cool for a minute, then slice and serve immediately.
