I've seen these called German or Dutch pancakes. I call them "Ned's birthday pancakes" in honor of Yalie Kate/Ned O'Brien, who introduced me to them on her birthday.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup milk
a pinch of salt
a pinch of vanilla extract
butter
lemon juice
confectionary sugar
Preheat oven and cast-iron skillet to 400 degrees. Beat eggs lightly in a bowl; add flour and stir until smooth. Add milk, salt, vanilla extract and mix together.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the cast iron skillet, and add the whole mixture (if it's a large skillet) or half the mixture (if it's small or medium). Cook for 10-15 minutes, until it is puffy and the top is golden. Drizzle with lemon juice and sugar. Repeat if using small skillet. This serves two people (unless they're very hungry.)

We love these. I can say from experience that you can't substitute the dairy or they won't rise.
