How to Make Brie Pancake

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a food processor or blender, combine 3 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 4 ounces brie cheese (cut into chunks), and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Blend for about 10 seconds until just combined. Don't overmix.
  3. Place 2 tablespoons of butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet or omelet pan. Place the pan in the preheated oven.
  4. Remove the pan from the oven when the butter is melted, bubbling, and just beginning to brown. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Immediately pour the egg batter into the hot pan. Return the pan to the oven.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is golden brown, puffed, and set. The edges should be slightly risen and crispy.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
  8. **Savory Version:** Garnish with 2 tablespoons of minced chives and a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  9. **Sweet Version:** Serve with your favorite fresh fruit (berries, sliced apples), a dollop of jam, or a fruit puree (e.g., raspberry or apricot).
