Puff pancakes

4 eggs
1 cup lowfat milk
1 cup flour
The topping:
1 lemon, sliced in half
2 Tbs. powdered sugar
Heat oven to 425*. Divide the butter between two 8-inch round cake pans and put in the oven to melt. Meanwhile, mix eggs, milk, and flour in a blender or by hand until batter is smooth. Remove pans from oven and pour half the batter into each pan. Return pans to oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until pancakes are very puffy, firm and golden brown on edges. Remove from oven, squeeze lemon over pancakes, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve warm.
