Serves: 4 - 12
Ingredients
  • There will be three amounts listed as we will share how to make three different sizes depending on your needs that day!
  • eggs: 4, 8, or 12
  • Flour (any type): 1 cup, 2 cups, or 3 cups
  • Milk (any type): 1 cup, 2 cups, or 3 cups
  • Butter (real butter is best): 3 TBSP, 6 TBSP or 8 TBSP
Optional Ingredients
  • A few dashes of cinnamon
  • Vanilla: ½ tsp., ¾ tsp. or 1 tsp.
Instructions
  1. First, you will want add the butter to your baking dish and turn the oven to 400 degrees and melt the butter in the baking dish on this temperature. Pull it out as soon as it is melted!
  2. Second, blend the eggs, milk and flour (and the cinnamon and vanilla if you are using those) in a blender on high until the mixture is mixed well and it is very smooth and a little thinner than pancake batter. We find this to be around 1 minute.
  3. After the butter is melted, then pour the mixture into the baking dish
  4. Place in the oven on 400 degrees for 18-28 minutes depending on baking dish size and bake until sides are brown and puffy and the middle puffs or splits.
  5. Serve warm with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
This recipe is intended to provide the instructions and ingredient amounts to help you make 3 different sizes. Honestly, we make each of these sizes regularly depending on the needs of our family at the time or if we have guests over (this is a GREAT breakfast for guests as a few simple ingredients goes a long way!) Here are the baking dish sizes and coordinating ingredient amounts (see optional coordinating vanilla amounts above). For 8x8 Square Pan (as shown above) - 4 Eggs, 1 C. Flour, 1 C. Milk and 3 TBSP butter and bake for 18-22 min. For 9x13 Rectangle Pan (Typical Normal Size Cake Pan) - 8 Eggs, 2 C. Flour, 2 C. Milk and 6 TBSP butter and bake for 20 - 25 min. For 11x15 Family Size Rectangle Pan - 12 Eggs, 3 C. Flour, 3 C. Milk and 8 TBSP (or 1 stick) butter and bake for 22-28 min. More Recipe Ideas for Building Better Breakfasts:
