Why should I try making German Pancakes?
They’re a heavenly blend of everything you love about pancakes, but fluffier, richer, and more satisfying. One bite, and you’ll wonder where they’ve been all your life!
How difficult is this recipe to make?
You’ll find it surprisingly simple! No flipping or fussing. The blender and oven do most of the work for you. Perfect for beginners!
Why use whole milk instead of skim milk?
Whole milk adds a richer, creamier texture that’s totally worth it! If you’re going to indulge, go all the way.
What can I use as toppings?
Maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruits are classics. But feel free to get creative with nuts, chocolate chips, or even a dollop of whipped cream.
Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 6 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 9×13 inch baking dish with 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter inside the oven to melt.
- In a blender, combine 1 cup of whole milk, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 6 large eggs, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
- Carefully pour the batter over the melted butter in the preheated baking dish. The sizzling butter will create those crispy edges!
- Bake for 22-27 minutes, without opening the oven. The pancake will puff up beautifully.
- Once golden brown and puffed, remove from the oven. Garnish with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruits.
Cooking Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients for better rise and texture.
- If the pancake browns too quickly, cover with foil during the last few minutes of baking.
- Add a dash of cinnamon or fresh berries to the batter for extra flavor.
Enjoy these fluffy German Pancakes for breakfast, or any time of day—they’re that good! 🌟
