Ingredients

2 cups water

1 cup heavy cream

10 eggs

1/3 cup powdered skim milk

3 1/4 cups flour (sifted)

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tbsp salt

1/4 tsp baking powder

a pinch of nutmeg

1 cup butter

Also, for topping:

1 bag of lemons

powdered sugar

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

In a big bowl combine the water, heavy cream, and powdered milk. Beat this mixture until its smooth, then add the eggs , the powdered sugar, flour sifted for accuracy of measurement., salt, baking powder, and nutmeg.

Beat all of this until it is smooth.

You need a med-large pan that is teflon-coated, with handles that are ok in the oven up to 375 degrees. , a baking pan will do the trick.

Put 2 tbsp. of butter in the pan that you have pre-melted in the microwave and, once melted, swirl it around the pan to coat it.

Add approximately 1/2 a cup of the batter to the pan, and swirl that around as well. This should leave you with a relatively thin layer (1/4" or so) of batter in the bottom of the pan.

If your oven is ready to go, pop 'em in .

I had two different sized pans to use (8" and 10" )so I used them both. I just staggered their location in the oven so that one wasn't blocking the heat to the other from below.

12 minutes at 400 degrees.

The larger pan will take a few minutes longer so check on them.

Once the pancakes start to brown around the edges, and curl away from the sides of the pan, they're ready to come out .When done put on a plate and keep them warm somewhere (toaster oven?)else while you keep cooking.

Make sure you remember to keep that hot mitt handy, because seeing a pan on the stovetop, you don't always think to have a hot mitt on.

prepare your topping of lemon and powdered sugar,

If you like lemon at all though, try this topping, it's really easy .

Just halve all lemons, and juice them.

Add some lemon juice, sprinkle some powdered sugar on it to counter-act the sour lemon juice, and you have a gorgeous pancake
