Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black (pepper)
  • 8 large eggs
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme (finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons chives (parsley or tarragon, minced)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup parmesan cheese (or Gruyere, grated)
  • kosher salt

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 425° 
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt and pepper
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Whisk wet ingredients into dry until just combined. You don’t have to worry if there’s a lump or two of flour in the pan. Stir in the thyme and the other herbs. Set this aside
  • Melt the butter in a heavy 12-inch ovenproof skillet over a medium-high heat. Let it cook until it smells nutty, and turns brown, about 5 minutes. Then swirl the skillet so the butter coats the sides of the pan
  • Pour the batter into the pan and scatter the cheese over the top. Sprinkle with salt. Bake until puffed and golden, about 18-25 minutes
  • Serve immediately, with salad and your favorite crusty bread. Or, in thin wedges with cocktails or mocktails
