Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp butter cold or room temp
  • ½ c milk
  • ½ c flour
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Put the 1 tbsp of butter into a 9 in. pie pan and put the pan and butter in the oven while it preheats. Keep an eye on it and take it out when the butter is bubbling (about 3-5 minutes).
  • While butter melts, in a medium size bowl whisk together the rest of the ingredients until there are no flour lumps. Then, whisk a little more! About a minute of extra whisking will ensure a fluffier pancake.
  • Pour batter into the buttery, hot pie pan and place back in the oven for 15 minutes. Pancake is done when the sides have risen up forming a nice bowl-shape, and the tops of the risen areas are slightly browned.
  • Fill with the topping of your choice.
