Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Blend Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 eggs, 2 cups of milk, 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Whisk everything together until smooth and creamy (3-5 minutes).
  2. Prepare Pan: Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
  3. Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until edges look set and the top loses its sheen.
  4. Flip and Finish Cooking: Gently flip the pancake and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes until light golden brown.
  5. Serve: Transfer to a warm plate and serve rolled or flat. Dust with powdered sugar or top with berry sauce or maple syrup.
