30 minutes. Serves 2 to 4

1 cup (4.25 ounces) flour

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup grated Gruyère cheese

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary

4 eggs, lightly beaten

3/4 cup milk

4 slices applewood-smoked bacon, cut into ¼-inch crosswise strips

1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, cheese and herbs. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, then beat the egg mixture into the flour.

2. Render the bacon in a 9- to 10-inch cast-iron skillet until crisp, then strain the bacon, leaving the hot fat in the pan. Stir the bacon into the batter, then pour the batter into the hot pan. Bake until the pancake is puffed and golden-brown, 20 to 24 minutes. Serve immediately.
