German Pancakes

This is a recipe from my mom that I LOVED when I was growing up for brinner! We make one for each of us in a 9 inch round pan, and it is delicious!

*makes 1 pancake

3 eggs

½ cup flour (I’ve been using whole wheat flour lately to be a bit healthier, and they are still good. They come out much more dense—vs. the white flour, where it is lighter and creeps up the side of the pan when baking)

¼ tspn salt

½ cup milk (I use nonfat milk and it works great)

1 Tblspn butter

Mix in a food processor:

Beat eggs.

Gradually add flour, salt, milk & melted butter.

Pour batter into a greased (or Pam sprayed) 8-10” round pan.

Bake at 450 degrees for 15 minutes, then at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

Serve with powdered sugar, lemon wedges, maple syrup, or fresh berries—or a combination!

Enjoy!
