Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You're mixing up a simple batter and letting the oven work its magic—no flipping required! The tricky part is keeping the oven door shut while this pancake puffs up beautifully, and working quickly once the skillet comes out of the oven so the butter gets hot and bubbly before the batter goes in.

  1. 1/5

    Preheat the oven and skillet

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Place a 25 cm cast-iron skillet in the middle of the oven and let it heat up for at least 5 minutes. This step is key to getting a perfect puff.

  2. 2/5

    Make a smooth batter

    In a bowl, combine the eggs, flour, milk, a tablespoon of maple syrup, salt and vanilla sugar. Whisk everything together thoroughly until you have a smooth batter.
