This skillet cake recipe was given to me by a friend years ago and she told me she used it for her strawberry shortcake. It is absolutely heavenly and my niece loves to eat it plain. It is just a good basic recipe — only your imagination limits what you can do with it! It is just a good ole Southern recipe and super simple. Awesome with fresh strawberries.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup milk, or as needed
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Melt butter in a 9-inch cast iron skillet over low heat. Transfer 1/2 of the melted butter to a mixing bowl, leaving remaining butter in the skillet.
Step 3
Add sugar to the mixing bowl and beat with melted butter until well blended. Add egg and mix until well beaten. Mix in flour and vanilla. Add milk, 2 tablespoons at a time, until mixture is the consistency of pancake batter. Pour batter into the skillet.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the stovetop.
