Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup low-fat milk (or your favorite non-dairy milk replacement)
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- dash of salt, as desired
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour (or your favorite gluten free all purpose flour)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup diced mango
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
- 1 kiwi, peeled and diced
- 1 wedge of lemon
- 1 Tablespoon powdered sugar
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 425 F. Lightly oil a 9-inch pie plate or oven safe skillet.
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs. Add milk and whisk again. Add the sugar, salt, nutmeg and whisk to dissolve the sugar. Add the flour and whisk until just combined - do not over-mix, the batter will be a bit lumpy which is fine. Stir in the orange zest.
- Put the butter into the pie plate and set into the oven to melt the butter - about 2 minutes. Remove plate from oven and swirl to distribute butter around the plate. Pour the batter into the buttered pie plate and return to the oven. Bake 15-20 minutes or until pancake is puffy, golden browned on the edges and set in the middle - but still a bit moist (not dried out). the pancake will fall a bit as it cools. Squeeze the juice of the lemon wedge over the pancake and dust with the powdered sugar. Cut pancake into 4 wedges.
- While the pancake is baking, slice the fruit and combine in a small bowl. Place a wedge of the pancake on serving plate and top with the fruit. Leftovers reheat well (keep the fruit separate until ready to eat.
- This pancake is great with any of your favorite fruits - blueberries, raspberries, cherries, pineapple, peaches, sautéed apples, pears or plums - choose your favorites and enjoy!
