Ingredients
  

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup flour
  • 1/4 cup butter

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Beat eggs with a whisk and add milk. Whisk until mixed together and eggs froth a little. Add sugar and salt. Slowly add flour and mix well.
  3. Melt butter in a 9 x 9” pan. Pour batter into pan with butter. Bake 18-20 minutes or until cooked all the way through. Should puff up, but eat it quickly because it’ll deflate fast! Serve with maple syrup, fruit, whipped cream, etc.
  4. Serves 4 people.
  5. Below is the recipe I jotted down from my mom when I went off to college 12 years ago. Can you believe that I never transferred it to a real recipe book–or even to the actual sheet? Honestly I think I might lose the recipe if I remove that sticky note. (Please note that the recipe I include in this post is a little modified from the sticky note below…and yes, ignore the spelling and scratches!)
