Steps:

• Fifteen minutes before baking preheat the oven to 450°; have a pie plate or oven-proof skillet ready.
• Whisk together the milk, flour, eggs, sugar and vanilla; put the butter in the pie plate or skillet and place the pan in the oven just until the butter is melted; with a brush coat the rim and entire inside of the pan.
• Slowly pour batter into hot pan; bake for 20 minutes; reduce heat to 350° and bake another 8-10 minutes, until pancake is well-browned; remove from oven and sieve confectioners' sugar over the top; serve immediately with fruit spooned into the center of the pancake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Combine eggs, flour, milk, sugar and nutmeg in a blender jar and blend until smooth. Batter may also be mixed by hand.
• Place butter in a heavy 10-inch skillet or baking dish and place in the oven. As soon as the butter has melted (watch it so it does not burn) add the batter to the pan, return pan to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until the pancake is puffed and golden. Lower oven temperature to 300 degrees and bake five minutes longer.
• Remove pancake from oven, cut into wedges and serve at once topped with syrup, preserves, confectioners' sugar or cinnamon sugar.

Steps:

• Remove one rack from your oven or set racks so there is a lot of space between them. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Cut the butter into chunks and place butter in 9x13 casserole dish, then place in oven for butter to melt.
• While the butter is melting, mix eggs with mixer or blender for one minute. Add milk and vanilla while motor is still running, then add flour and cinnamon until well mixed, about 30 seconds more, but do not over mix.
• Remove dish from oven and pour in egg mixture over hot melted butter; bake until puffy and browned, about 14-20 minutes. (Be sure to watch closely the first time!)
• Remove from oven and sprinkle with generous dusting of powdered sugar. Serve with a side of maple syrup. It is also delicious with sliced strawberries.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter. In a blender, puree eggs on high until frothy, 45 seconds. Add vanilla and then, with blender running, gradually add milk and melted butter. Stop blender; add flour, cornstarch, and salt; and puree 1 minute more.
• Add remaining butter to four 6-inch cast-iron skillets (1/2 Tbsp each) and put in oven on middle rack until melted, swirling to coat.
• Immediately pour batter into skillets (1/2 cup each; this prevents butter from burning) and bake until golden brown and puffed, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool slightly, then top with lemon curd, berries, and mint.
