RECIPE

• eggs (one per person, I do 2-3 in a 10 in / 25 cm pan)
• milk (1/3 cup, 80mL per egg)
• flour (1/3 cup, 40g per egg, and I like to replace up to half my flour with starch)
• salt (a pinch per egg)
• sugar (1 teaspoon per egg, sweet or savory)
• vanilla (only for sweet)
• spreadable cheese, like ricotta/brie/mascarpone (OPTIONAL 1 tablespoon per egg, improves the taste but makes it not puff as much)
• butter
• toppings (lemon juice and powdered sugar is nice for sweet, eggs/salami/onion is nice for savory)

1. If possible, warm the eggs and the milk before mixing. Combine the eggs, salt, sugar and vanilla (if using) in a mixing bowl and whisk until frothy. Whisk in the flour until smooth, then whisk in the milk. Or you could just dump all of that in the blender at once. Let the batter sit for at least 20 minutes before baking.
2. Put your pan (nonstick or cast iron) in the oven and get the oven heating to 425ºF/220ºC. When it's all the way hot, take the pan out of the oven and melt in a thick film of butter. Pour in the batter and return the pan to the oven. Bake until puffy and golden (mine took 20 minutes).
3. If you want to cook some eggs on top like I do in the video, bake until almost done, pull it out, put on your eggs/seasonings/onions/salami/whatever and return to the pan for a few minutes until the yolk is as firm as you want it.
4. Transfer to a cooling rack and let it steam out before you eat.
