Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter a 10-inch nonstick skillet or cake pan lightly.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk egg yolks with 2 tbsp sugar and 1 tbsp vanilla until pale and thick, ~2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Sift flour over the yolk mixture, then add milk. Stir until smooth; let rest 1 minute.

  4. Step 4

    Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form, 3–4 minutes. Fold gently into batter in two additions.

  5. Step 5

    Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake on the middle rack for 18–22 minutes until puffed, jiggly in center, edges set.

  6. Step 6

    Slide onto a plate, top with sliced strawberries and a knob of butter. Serve immediately.
