German Pancake

A German Pancake, also called a Dutch Baby, is a thin crepe-like pancake that you bake in a skillet. Ridiculously easy to make and incredibly delicious, these are sure to become a weekend staple in our home. They kind of remind me of my mother's Yorkshire Puddings, but with a sweeter taste. Bake one of these up and serve with your favourite breakfast toppings!

What you'll need:
1/2 cup of Flour, sifted
3 Eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup Milk
2 tbsp Butter, melted
1 tbsp Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt

Preheat oven to 450°F.

In a large bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add in milk, melted butter, sugar and salt. 

 Gradually whisk in flour, one spoonful at a time, until there are no lumps.

Lightly spray a 9" skillet with cooking spray. Pour batter into skillet. 

Bake for 12-18 minutes or just until the edges are golden.  

 It will slightly deflate as it comes out of the oven.

Serve with your favourite toppings:

Light dusting of icing sugar

Yogurt and berries

Apples and a light caramel sauce

Drizzled with maple syrup, honey or chocolate syrup.
