Finnish Kropsu (Baked Pancake)

My sister found this recipe, who gave it to my sister-in-law, and it is now part of their favorite Christmas traditions, or potluck favorite, or guests are over let's make a quick pancake.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 each eggs
  • 1/2 C sugar
  • 2 C milk
  • 1 1/4 C flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 C butter melted

Equipment

  • 9"x13" baking dish
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring spoons and cups

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix all ingredients in a bowl, except butter. Beat until blended with a whisk. It will be very thin. Melt butter in 9"x13" pan. Take half of melted butter and add to batter. Pour batter over hot butter and bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
    It will puff up in baking. A fun part of this recipe is watching it deflate!
    Serve with yogurt, jam, jelly, syrup, or honey. Cut in squares to serve.
