Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups milk, warmed
- 1 package instant yeast, 2 ¼ teaspoons
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- softened butter for greasing the pan
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups milk, 1 package instant yeast, and 3 tablespoons sugar. Let the mixture rest until the yeast becomes frothy, about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all purpose flour and ¼ teaspoon salt. When the yeast mixture is ready, pour it into the bowl of flour along wit1 large egg.
- Use an electric hand mixer and beat the batter until it is smooth. You can also use a whisk, but an electric mixer is quicker.
- Cover the batter and let it rest for 45 minutes to an hour. The batter should become very bubbly and double in size.
- Heat a poffertjes pan or large skillet over medium heat. Grease each cup or the surface of the skillet with some of the Softened butter for greasing the pan, and scoop a heaping tablespoon of batter into each cup. If using a skillet, leave a couple of inches of space between each poffertjes.
- Flip the poffertjes after about 2 minutes of cooking. Bubbles should form on the top of the uncooked batter.
- Cook another 1-2 minutes until they are all golden brown on both sides then remove from the pan and continue with the rest of the batter.
- Serve fresh, with powdered sugar for dusting and your favorite sweet breakfast sides!
