I cooked this on the BBQ today in my 9" cast iron frying pan. Despite how difficult it is to control the temperature (it was around 500 F most of the cook time) it turned out really well, was done at about the 11 minute mark.It is more "eggy" than other baked pancake recipes I've tried. Best eaten fresh.

I tried this recipe today and I was surprised how quick and easy it was to make. I actually made mine in a toaster oven since it's the start of the summer and I didn't want to heat the house with the regular oven. I intended to set the timer to 20 min. and "forget it" but that was a slight mistake. Good thing I returned to the kitchen 18 min. into baking because the pancake rose to the top of my toaster oven and started to burn the top edges. My husband didn't mind though since he said it gave it a nice home-made look;) I topped my pancake with sliced kiwis and peaches. I then sprinkled it with powdered sugar. I almost looked too pretty to eat. It was a really good breakfast, not too sweet. I plan on adding this to my Father's Day brunch menu since my dad's diabetic and shouldn't eat too much sweets. I think one pie plate is good for about 3 people if it's the only thing you're going to eat for breakfast.
