Puffy German Pancake



There's nothing so satisfying as a warm, puffy oven pancake covered in hot maple syrup and fresh strawberries!


The best part about making this easy breakfast is how much fun it is to watch it rise in the oven.  My kids call it a swamp monster.



Puffy German Pancake (Oven Pancake)

6 T Butter, sliced
1 C Flour
1 C Milk
6 Eggs
1/2 tsp Salt
Powdered Sugar
Strawberries
Maple Syrup

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400F.  Place butter in 9x13" baking pan and let it melt in the oven.  Meanwhile, mix flour, milk, eggs, and salt with mixer.  Remove pan with melted butter from the oven and pour batter into the pan.  Return the pan to the oven for 15-20 minutes.  The sides will rise considerably so make sure it is in the middle or lower section of the oven.

Cut and serve hot with powdered sugar, strawberries, and maple syrup.  Enjoy!

  2. Oooh.... Yum! I've always wanted to try making these. You make it look so easy. It seems like the recipe could be easily tweaked to make a flavored pancake; maybe a chocolate one as a dessert? Once I master your recipe, I'll do a little experimenting and let you know if I hit upon tasty success!

    I know what I'm making for breakfast tomorrow! Thank you for the inspiration!
    Blessings,

  3. Oh my goodness! This was my favorite breakfast to make as a kid. I made it every Saturday for my family, but we called them Dutch Babies. I loved seeing them on your blog!

  5. I have grown up making this since I first learned to cook! It is so adjustable, you can have the recipe for a smaller pan, increase it for a larger pan, if you only have 5 eggs, it works just as well! Been a favorite in my family and with those I have shared it with for years! So nice to see that someone else makes it too...We have always called them Dutch Pancakes, not sure why...but that is what my grandma told me and therefore it stuck! Blessings on such a wonderful website. I really enjoy it...so will all my children when I make some new treats!
