HOW TO MAKE GERMAN PANCAKES:
Remember, all you need are 3 simple ingredients!
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 6 eggs
- (you’ll also need butter for the pan!)
Once you have your ingredients, you start combining!
Start by mixing flour, milk, and eggs in a bowl.
Next, melt 6T of butter in a 9 X 13 pan and pour the mixture directly on top of butter. DO NOT MIX.
Then, bake 15-18 minutes at 450 degrees.
And once you start smelling that sweet smell, remove from oven and serve with fresh fruit of syrup!
FAQS ABOUT GERMAN PANCAKES:
Q: What are German pancakes?
A: While the name says pancakes, these won’t look or taste like American pancakes. German pancakes are an egg-based “pancake” where you bake an egg, flour, and milk mixture. Baking causes the pancakes to rise in a unique way. They’ll feel a little closer to a crepe than a pancake and are really filling.
Q: What do you serve with German pancakes?
A: German pancakes are great with a layer of butter and then a topping of lemon juice, fruit, powdered sugar, or syrup. You could also try topping with whip cream, chocolate chips, or peanut butter for more variety.
Q: What are German Pancakes called, and why?
A: German pancakes were first created in America and inspired by Dutch immigrants. They are also called Dutch baby or Dutch puff and were inspired by the German Pfannkuchen.
