  2. In a large bowl or blender, combine eggs, milk, flour, salt, and vanilla. Whisk or blend until smooth and creamy.
  3. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, swirl it around the pan to coat the bottom and sides evenly.
  4. Pour the batter into the hot, buttered pan and spread it evenly to the edges.
  5. Bake for 15-25 minutes, watching for the pancakes to puff and turn golden brown.
  6. Drizzle melted butter on top and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving warm with toppings.
