This weekend my little Misterchef was helping me in the kitchen preparing the breakfast. He just loved helping out whisking, pouring and finally messing up with all the stuff 
We made Finnish baked ‘pannakakku’ or pancake and served warmly with a nice blueberry jam and some frozen raspberry.
Introducing, my kitchen helper for the day, little Mikael
This pancake is rich with creamy and soft texture. Believe me, you can never eat just one piece
It took me just 5-10 minutes (note that I was dealing with the little Misterchef too) to prepare this and additional 25 min to bake. I like nice saturday morning for such an easy breakfast 
I got the recipe from one of the monthly free Finnish magazine at the supermarket. They normally didn’t use any sugar in the mixture but I added some as I liked it to have some more sweetness not only from the topping. Sprinkling some berries fruits is also one good idea for this recipe.
So here it is… a big tray for our breakfast today. Give it a try, you won’t regret it at all 
Finnish Baked Pancake Recipe
- 500 ml milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 cup melted butter or olive oil
- 2 tbsp sugar (optional)
- a pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- sugar for topping (to sprinkle)
- Pre-heat your oven to 225 C.
- Mix all of the ingredients except sugar for the topping in a big bowl. Mix well, manually or using electric mixer.
- Pour the mixture into the baking tray (with baking paper). I used about 33cm x 30cm tray.
- Sprinkle some sugar (you can also add some berries fruits) and bake for 25-30 minit.
- Serve with jam or honey!

Hi,
Thanks for the compliment. You should try this very easy recipe
Odd question, but can this be done on a skillet? We’re in the process of buying cast iron cookware, including a long griddle very much like a baking pan. The thing is that we’re trying to steer away from nonstick chemicals and such.
This recipe looks very delicious and I’d love to make it.
Yes sure. You can use which ever oven proof thingy for this recipe. As long as the skillet can stand the oven’s heat
Also, remember to put thin layer of the mixture (i like it about 1-1.5 inch) in the skillet. Too thick will make it like a cake
not sure if this website is still running, but I do hope so.
I have made this recipe several times, and I do love it. However, Since I live in America, so our oven is farenheit. The tempurature required comes out between two settings on my oven, 400 and 450. I recently switched to a different flour, and regardless of whether I cook it lower, higher, or in the middle, it’s still a bit gooey in the middle. Should I cook it on a lower rack? Any advice would be wonderful, because I do love this recipe so much!
Hi Merlinda,
I usually bake it using 225 C so it’s about 437 F. I would recommend that you use the lower rack (I used 1 rack below the middle) and you can also reduce the thickness of your pancake, maybe around 1-1.5 inch.
I hope this would help
so i love this recipe and want to make it for my family reunion but im wondering how much it serves
Hi Alex,
This recipe can serve up to 4 people. Hope you’ll like it
Good stuff. My visitors have been asking about this, do you mind if I re-print this on my forum? I will of course give full credit to this site, and I will link to you if you like. Thanks.
Hi, sure. I would be very happy to share with other people
I’m buying you a round if that turns out to be correct!
