Cooking Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Melt the Butter
In a large oven-safe skillet (preferably cast iron), melt the butter over medium heat. Make sure it coats the bottom of the skillet.
Bake
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.
Serve
Remove from the oven, dust with powdered sugar, and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
