Method
- 1
Heat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan). Put a 25cm ovenproof frying pan in to heat.
- 2
Whisk the eggs, milk, flour, caster sugar and lemon zest until smooth. A few small lumps are fine.
- 3
Carefully take the hot pan out and add the butter. It will melt and sizzle at once. Swirl to coat the base.
- 4
Pour in the batter and return to the oven straight away.
- 5
Bake for 18 minutes, without opening the door, until puffed and deep golden at the edges.
