Ham & Cheese Oven-Puffed Pancake

Metric Cup Measures

By Jennifer Segal

Inspired by Tasting Paris: 100 Recipes To Eat Like A Local by Clotilde Dusoulier

This ham and cheese oven-puffed pancake falls halfway between a crepe and a soufflé: crisp on the outside and comfortingly tender inside.

Servings: 4

Prep Time: 15 Minutes

Cook Time: 25 Minutes

Total Time: 40 Minutes

Ingredients

• 
  3 large eggs
  


• 
  1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  


• 
  Heaping 1/2 teaspoon salt
  


• 
  1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  


• 
  1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned into a measuring cup and leveled-off
  


• 
  1-1/4 cups whole milk (or substitute 1/4 cup heavy cream + 1 cup skim milk)
  


• 
  2/3 cup grated Gruyere cheese
  


• 
  1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
  


• 
  3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  


• 
  5 slices (4 oz) thinly sliced ham, finely diced
  

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.


2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the flour. Gradually add the milk, whisking until the batter is smooth. Stir in the cheese and chives.


3. Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast iron or nonstick ovenproof pan over medium heat. Remove from the heat and swirl the butter around. Sprinkle the ham evenly around the pan. Pour the batter over the ham, then use a fork to be sure the ham is evenly distributed. Carefully transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes. It will appear puffed straight out of the oven, but will quickly collapse. Cut the pancake into thin wedges and serve. (Remember that the pan is hot; I usually place a dishtowel or oven mitt over the handle as a reminder.)


4. The pancake is best served fresh out of the oven. However, leftover slices can be reheated in the microwave.


5. Note: Unlike a Dutch baby where the edges of the pancake will remain puffy after coming out of the oven, this pancake should puff up a bit in the oven to about 1½ inches high all over, then settle to about ½ inch high as it cools.
