The latter is what my husband's uncle would ask. I, on the other hand, had never heard of such a thing. When it came across as a breakfast food item on Pinterest, I was intrigued.
Admittedly, my husband and I are not big breakfast eaters, but I'm willing to try anything once and it seemed super simple. I played with the recipe a little.
Hootenanny
(Oven-Pancake)
Original Ingredients: Food Junkie Ingredients:
1 cup of white flour 1 cup all-purpose white flour
1 cup milk 1 cup 2% milk
6 large eggs 4 jumbo eggs
1/4 tsp salt A handfull of blueberries
1/2 c melted butter
Mix flour, milk and eggs well (if you are using the salt, mix that in also). Pour batter into a greased 13x9 pan (I used a glass pan). Pour melted butter over batter (or sprinkle blueberries); do NOT mix.
Bake in oven preheated to 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Time varies slightly depending on oven size and altitude.
Cut into pieces, drizzle with maple syrup--or a syrup of your choice--and serve!

Conclusion:
Hubby liked it. He worried me at first, because he said, "Wow, that's interesting." That's usually a bad thing, but he took another bite. "That's like French toast, an omelet and pancakes all mixed up." I asked if that was good or bad, and he said it was a good thing. I left him alone and knew that I would find out in a few minutes whether or not he actually liked it.
Sure enough, he finished the serving I had given him and then went back for more. Whew!
He and I discussed it and I will pour the butter over the batter next time, but maybe not as much. We think it would be good to add a 1/2 a teaspoon of cinnamon to enhance the flavor a little. For a sweeter taste, I may add a little brown sugar as well.
All in all, I would consider it a success! Go make yourself a Hootenanny!
