Get ingredients ready before starting.

Put butter in pan and set into a 425 degree oven [ed: use bake mode, not convection], then mix batter quickly while butter melts.

Put eggs in blender container and whirl at high speed for one minute.

With motor running, gradually pour in milk, then slowly flower, continue whirling for 30 sec.

(With a rotary beater, beat eggs until light and lemon colored; gradually beat in milk then flower.)

Remove pan from oven and pour batter into the hot melted butter. Return to oven and bake until puffy and well browned - 20 to 25 min. depending on the pan.

Dust with nutmeg if you wish and serve at once with any of the following toppings.

[ed: skip the nutmeg. I hate nutmeg!]

These sizes make 3 to 6 servings.
