David Dares Pancake

1. Combine Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, ½ cup of milk, ½ cup of all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg, and a pinch of kosher salt until smooth. Ensure that everything is well combined to form a smooth pancake batter.

2. Melt Butter and Bake Pancake

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Once bubbling, pour the pancake batter into the skillet and transfer to the oven. Bake for approximately 15 minutes until the pancake is puffy and golden brown.

3. Caramelize with Sugar

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of confectioners' sugar over the pancake using a fine-mesh sieve and return it to the oven for an additional 2 to 3 minutes to allow the sugar to caramelize lightly.

4. Finish with Lemon Juice

Remove the skillet from the oven and splash 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice over the pancake. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
