Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prepare
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly butter or grease a baking dish.
Step 2: Mix the Base
In a large bowl, whisk egg yolks with the milk until smooth. Gradually whisk in the flour until fully combined and lump-free.
Step 3: Whip the Egg Whites
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. This is the secret to the light, airy texture.
Step 4: Fold Gently
Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in batches, using gentle strokes to keep as much air as possible.
Step 5: Bake
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until puffed, golden, and just set in the center.
Step 6: Serve Immediately
The bake will slightly deflate as it cools—this is normal. Serve warm for the best texture.
Serving Tip
Dust with powdered sugar for a classic finish, or serve with berries and a drizzle of honey for a delicate, café-style breakfast ☀️🍳
