Oven Pancake with Fresh Berries

We are expecting company for the weekend and I find this is a really good way to show you are glad they came.

• 1/2 cup cold butter
• 5 eggs
• 1 tbsp. sugar
• pinch of salt
• 1  1/2 cups milk
• 1/2 cup cream
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• Fresh berries
• icing sugar/whipped cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grate butter and place in a 9 x 12 glass baking dish.  Heat oven until butter has melted.

Combine eggs, sugar, salt in an electric mixer for 1 minute at high speed.

Now, slowly add milk/cream, then flour, then ricotta cheese and finally the baking powder.

Pour into the hot baking dish.  Bake for 35 minutes until it has puffed and is starting to brown.

Remove  from oven and let sit for about 6-7  minutes before cutting.  The center will fall. Serve with fresh berries and whipped cream, butter and warm maple syrup.

Now, aren’t you glad you came for a visit.
