Ingredients

  • 1 cup pecan pieces divided
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon confectioners’ sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F. In small bowl of food processor, process 1/2 cup pecans until finely ground. Transfer to bowl. In processor, pulse remaining pecans to coarsely chop.
  • In medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk, maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Stir in finely ground and coarsely chopped pecans.
  • In 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat, heat butter. Add batter to pan. Cook without stirring until edges begin to set, 5 minutes, then transfer to oven and bake until completely set and golden brown, 10 minutes. Pancake will puff up in oven then fall into place as it cools.
