Giant Oven Pancakes/Yorkshire Pudding

3 T butter
1 C milk
1 C flour
1/4 t salt
4-6 eggs

Preheat oven to 450, melt butter in 9x13 pan.  Mix milk, flour, salt, and eggs in blender.  Bake for 10-15 min, until top looks brown so it is done in the middle.

Growing up, it was a treat to have Giant Oven Pancakes for dinner.  We would put jam, powdered sugar, butter, and even lemon juice on them.  Since they weren't Dad's favorite, we mainly got this meal when he wasn't going to be home for dinner.  When I got to college, I learned that this dish had many other names:  German Pancakes or Dutch Babies (and of course no one else called them GIANT oven pancakes :)  When I got married, I learned some more shocking news.  Keith's family ate them with gravy!  That's different.  In fact, Yorkshire pudding was a side dish for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner.  Now when I make them, I make some brown gravy for Keith and get out the powdered sugar for myself.  Yum!
