- 2 whole eggs
- 3 egg whites or can use 6 Tbsp of liquid egg whites
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt rounded
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar packed
- 3 Tbsp butter salted and cubed
Preheat oven to 425°
Add the whole eggs, egg whites, milk, flour, vanilla, salt and brown sugar to a blender. Blend the batter on low for 1 minute and then scrape down the sides in case any flour is sticking to the sides. Continue to blend on low for another 2 minutes.
Put the butter into a 9x13 baking dish (I used glass) and place into the preheated oven while the batter rests for 5 minutes. The butter should start to boil but watch that it doesn’t burn.
When the rest time is done, take the dish out of the oven and swirl the butter to make sure it spreads all over.
Give the batter a quick stir or pulse then carefully pour the batter into the dish and bake for 20 minutes. Turn the oven down to 300° and cook for an additional 5 minutes. While cooking, the pancake edges will puff up about 2 inches above the rim and then deflate when it is taken out of the oven.
As soon as it comes out of the oven, swirl the dish once more to distribute any melted butter left on top evenly over the pancake.
Serve with strawberries and powdered sugar or syrup.
