Old Amsterdam has a pancake house that can only be reached by a stiff ascent up a steep boat ladder. In a little room with a second-floor view to the street, a wild-haired chef makes these 'dutch pancakes' with all manner of toppings, savory and sweet. In the warm months, I'll serve this with berries; in the cool months, I love sliced apples and pears, cooked in butter with a bit of cinnamon and maple syrup. |

1 | Heat oven to 425°F. Place a 12-inch skillet with a heatproof handle in the oven to warm up. |
| 2 | Combine the flour, milk, eggs, nutmeg, and salt in a bowl. Beat lightly, leaving the batter a little lumpy. |
| 3 | Add butter to the skillet in the oven. When it is very hot, pour the batter in. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the pancake is puffy and golden. |
| 4 | Dust with sugar and warm briefly to oven. |
| 5 | Remove, sprinkle with lemon juice. Serve with fruit toppings. |
