Instructions
  1. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter in a 10″ cast iron (or other oven proof) skillet. Toss in sliced pears, cardamom, lemon juice & sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pears are tender & the sugars are beginning to caramelize, anywhere from 10-20 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 F.
  3. Combine flour & salt in a large bowl, make a well & add eggs. Whisk to combine, adding the milk a little at a time until batter is smooth. Whisk in vanilla & 2 Tbsp melted butter.
  4. Pour the batter into the hot pan over the pears & place it in the oven.
  5. Bake until golden & dramatically puffed, about 30 minutes.
  6. Dust with powdered sugar & cut into wedges. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes

This baked pancake is good reheated or eaten cold should there be any leftovers.
Brion & I really enjoyed this pear pancake with some sausage & eggs on the side for a nice sweet/savory meal.
