DAVID EYRE'S PANCAKE
Writing in The Times in 1966, Craig Claiborne described making the acquaintance of this oven-baked pancake as if he had met Grace Kelly: "It was discovered some weeks ago at an informal Sunday brunch in the handsome, Japanese-style Honolulu home of the David Eyre. With Diamond Head in the distance, a brilliant, palm-ringed sea below and this delicately flavored pancake before us, we seemed to have achieved paradise." (Life was good if you were a food writer in the 1960s.) Nearly 50 years later, readers are still making the dish, and swooning like Claiborne.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. In a mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the flour, milk and nutmeg and lightly beat until blended but still slightly lumpy.
- Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet with a heatproof handle over medium-high heat. When very hot but not brown, pour in the batter. Bake in the oven until the pancake is billowing on the edges and golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- Working quickly, remove the pan from the oven and, using a fine-meshed sieve, sprinkle with the sugar. Return to the oven for 1 to 2 minutes more. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve with jam, pear butter or marmalade.
