Mixed Berry Cast Iron Pancake
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup whole milk, or half & half
- 1 large egg, room temp
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries, thawed
- 1 tsp sugar
- powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a 10" cast iron skillet in the oven to heat.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, 3 tablespoons of sugar, baking powder, salt & cinnamon- until evenly combined.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract- until evenly combined.
- Combine the wet/dry ingredients, whisking just until combined.
- Carefully remove the hot skillet. Add the last pat of butter, swirling it around to coat the skillet evenly. Pour/scrape the batter into the pan, smoothing with a spatula.
- Spread the fruit evenly out over the top, sprinkling with the remaining sugar.
- Return the skillet to the oven, baking 25 minutes- or until golden brown and a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Remove the cooked pancake from the oven, and let rest for 5 full minutes, to set.
- Dust the cake with sifted powdered sugar. Slice, and serve with a drizzle of honey or syrup.
