Annonce:

German pancakes, also known as Dutch babies, are a delightful treat that can turn any morning into a special occasion. Originating from Germany, these pancakes are known for their fluffy, soufflé-like texture and are perfect for a cozy family breakfast. They’re quick to whip up and can be a fun surprise for kids as they puff up dramatically in the oven. Whether you’re looking to impress guests or simply want to enjoy a comforting meal with your loved ones, German pancakes are a wonderful choice.

German pancakes are best served hot from the oven, dusted with powdered sugar and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. They pair beautifully with a side of fresh fruit like berries or sliced apples. For a heartier meal, consider serving them with crispy bacon or sausage links. A dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of maple syrup can also add a touch of sweetness that complements the pancake’s light and airy texture.
German Pancakes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

3 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Powdered sugar, for serving
Lemon wedges, for serving

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a blender, combine eggs, flour, milk, salt, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and put it in the oven to melt. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Once the butter is melted, carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and pour the batter into the hot dish.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pancake is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. The pancake will deflate as it cools.
Slice and serve immediately with powdered sugar and lemon wedges.
