Yesterday morning, my mom and I had a delightful breakfast consisting of a German pancake and French brie cheese (the stinky kind). German pancakes are really eggy, poof up while cooking, and are topped with powdered sugar and a squeeze of lemon. We used a pan on the stove instead of the oven and it was very quick. I’ll have to practice poofing these pancakes, because it didn’t look quite like I think it should look. They can sometimes really poof up the side of the pan. More melted butter could also be mixed into the batter. But anyways, it was still delicious! This recipe serves 2.
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup flour
Salt
1-2 tablespoons butter
Powdered sugar
Sliced lemon
- Mix the eggs and milk using a hand mixer.
- Add the flour and a little salt and mix until you get a thin batter.
- Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until the butter is slightly browned.
- Pour in the batter, lower the heat slighly and cover.
- Once the batter puffs up, your pancake is done.
- Flip onto a plate, sprinkle with powdered sugar and squeeze with lemon.
