How to Make Puff Pancake For Fruit

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Lightly oil a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate or casserole dish and place it in the preheated oven for 5 minutes to heat.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 2 large egg whites, 1/2 cup milk (whole milk recommended), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Add a pinch of salt.
  5. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Carefully remove the hot casserole dish from the oven (use oven mitts!). Pour the batter into the hot dish.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is puffed, golden brown, and the edges are crisp.
  8. While the puff bakes, prepare your fruit: wash, and slice or chop approximately 2 cups of your favorite fruit into bite-sized pieces (berries, stone fruit, apples, etc.).
  9. Remove the puff pancake from the oven. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1-2 tablespoons of granulated sugar (adjust to your sweetness preference). Evenly distribute the prepared fruit over the top.
  10. Serve immediately. Enjoy the warm, delicious contrast of the sweet fruit and the light, airy puff pancake!
