In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and pour in the batter. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm.
