David Eyres Pancake
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- Pinch of ground nutmeg
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- Juice of half a lemon
- Fig or blackberry jam, pear butter or any kind of marmalade, for serving (optional)
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
- Add the flour, milk and nutmeg and lightly beat until blended but still slightly lumpy.
- Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet with a heatproof handle over medium-high heat.
- When very hot but not brown, pour in the batter.
- Bake in the oven until the pancake is billowing on the edges and golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- Working quickly, remove the pan from the oven and, using a fine-meshed sieve, sprinkle with the sugar.
- Return to the oven for 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve with jam, pear butter or marmalade.
