Recipe for German Pancakes
March 27, 2020
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 ⅓ cups of all-purpose flour
- 4 Tablespoons of granulated sugar
- ½ cup butter (Melt in the pan like the instructions say; Don’t blend with other ingredients.)
- 1 lemon and some powdered sugar (optional for garnish)
Instructions:
- Place ½ cup butter in a 9×13 baking dish.
- Set the baking dish that has the butter in the oven and preheat it to 400° while the pan with butter is still in the oven.
- In a blender ( because it’s easier) or a bowl, combine milk, eggs, vanilla, flour and granulated sugar.
- When the butter is completely melted (without browning or burning it), pour the batter using a metal spoon (in order to spread the batter evenly in the pan) into the baking dish that has the melted butter in it.
- Cook for 20-30 minutes or until the pancake is set in the middle and the edges are puffed up and a golden brown color.
- Remove from the oven.
- Optional: Squeeze the juice of one lemon on top of the pancake and dust the top with as much powdered sugar as you want.
- Serve it right away.
