Step 1
Whisk flour, milk, eggs, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Let batter rest 5 minutes.

Pour 1/4 cup batter into the skillet, immediately tilt and swirl to spread thin. Cook until the bottom is light golden, ~90 seconds.
Step 4
Flip and cook the other side 30 seconds. Slide onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter.
