Finnish Oven Pancakes

01Method

1. 1

   Set an 11x13-inch baking pan inside the oven, then preheat to 425°F (220°C) with the pan already in place.

2. 2

   Whisk the eggs thoroughly in a large bowl, then incorporate the milk, lemon zest, white sugar, and salt. Stir in the flour and continue whisking until the batter is completely smooth. Finish by mixing in the lemon juice.

3. 3

   Add the butter to the hot pan and let it melt until it bubbles, then tilt the pan to coat the entire bottom evenly. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

4. 4

   Bake until the surface is lightly golden and puffed up, 20 to 30 minutes. Combine the coarse sugar with the cardamom and scatter over the top, then cut into portions and serve.
