How to Make Blepandekager Danish Apple Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, lightly beat 2 large eggs.
  2. Add 1 cup of milk to the beaten eggs and whisk to combine.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

  13. Dot the top with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  14. Return to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the butter is melted and the pancake is lightly browned.
  15. Let cool slightly before sprinkling with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
  16. Cut into wedges and serve warm.
