A recipe for Pfannkuchen (German Pancakes) inspired by my visit to Bad Ems, Germany! These light, thin pancakes are delicious on their own or with a variety of toppings.

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
- Slowly whisk in the milk until combined and no lumps remain.
- Whisk in the eggs. If too thick, slowly add a little more milk (remember sparkling water will be added after resting). If too thin, slowly add a little more flour.
- Cover the bowl and allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Place a large nonstick skillet or pan over medium low heat. Lightly grease with oil or butter.
- Whisk the sparkling water into the batter.
- Once the pan is thoroughly heated, add 1/3 cup (80 milliliters) batter to the center and immediately tilt the pan in a circle to coat the bottom in a thin layer.
- Cook until set on the top and the bottom turns golden, about 2 minutes.
- Flip and cook until the other side is golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove to plate. Rub the pan with more butter or oil as needed and repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve immediately with desired toppings.
