Easy German Pancake Recipe
Description
The batter for this German pancake is blended until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. Melted butter is heated in a cast-iron skillet, creating a hot surface for the batter. Once poured in, the skillet is transferred to a high-temperature oven where the batter rapidly rises and browns over about 18 minutes, developing a distinctive puffed appearance.
The final pancake has crispy edges and a soft, custardy interior. It is served topped with halved fresh strawberries and a dusting of powdered sugar, which provide contrast to the rich pancake. Maple syrup or buttermilk syrup can be drizzled for extra sweetness, and additional melted butter is optional.
This recipe is notable for its ease, requiring only basic ingredients and blender mixing, and utilizes the oven baking method instead of stovetop flipping.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 large egg
- 3/4 cup milk whole
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar for dusting
- 1 cup strawberries sliced into halves
- maple syrup or buttermilk syrup
- 2 tablespoons butter melted, for serving, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a blender, combine the flour, eggs, milk, and salt. Blend until smooth and free of lumps, about 20 seconds.
- In a 10-inch (25 cm) cast-iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of melted butter over high heat until foamy. Add the batter and immediately place the skillet in the oven. Bake until the pancake is golden brown and puffed up, about 18 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and place the strawberries in the center of the German pancake. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup or buttermilk syrup, along with melted butter if desired.
