Although pancakes are rarely part of a traditional German breakfast, there are numerous recipes floating around on the internet for German Pancakes. This recipe is part of a more traditional Zweites Frühstück (second breakfast) and would be served with fresh fruits, jam, or confectioner's sugar.
These pancakes closely resemble the French Crepe but are slightly thicker.
Serves 1 (easily double, or triple the recipe as needed)
2 eggs
4 Tbs all purpose flour
1/2 Tbs sugar
dash salt
2-3 Tbs milk
- Whisk the eggs for 1 minute or until light and fluffy.
- Add flour, salt, sugar, and milk.
- Mix well. It should form a very thin batter.
- Let stand for 15 minutes.
- Heat a 10-inch crepe or omelet skillet until well heated.
- Brush with melted butter or spray lightly with cooking spray.
- Pour approximately 1/4 cup batter into skillet.
- Swirl to spread evenly in skillet.
- Cook 1-2 minute on first side, or until the bottom is browned and top is set.
- Turn. Cook 30 seconds to 1 minute on second side.
