These puffy pancakes have many unusual names including bismarcks and Dutch Puffs. In every case, a simple batter poured into a hot pan creates instant, unforgettable magic. This sweet version is a perfect fast dessert or breakfast; or add sautéed mushrooms and bacon for a savoury meal.
3 eggs
2/3 cup milk
3 tbsp granulated sugar, plus 1 tsp for garnish
1/4 tsp all-purpose salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tbsp unsalted butter
4 halves of roasted plums, (see link below)
Vanilla ice cream
PREHEAT oven to 425F.
WHISK eggs, milk, 3 tbsp sugar and salt in a large bowl. Sift in flour while whisking until mixture is smooth.
HEAT a 9-in. cast iron or oven-safe frying pan over medium-high until hot, about 5 min. Add butter to pan, swirling to coat. Pour in batter and immediately transfer to oven.
BAKE until puffed and golden, about 10 min. Sprinkle with 1 tsp granulated sugar, then top with roasted plums and ice cream.
Kitchen Tip: If using an oven-safe frying pan, it will take less time to become puffed and golden, 7 to 9 min.
