Ingredients

Scale

Eggs

  • 4 large eggs

Milk

  • 1 cup milk

Flour

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Butter

  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Sugar

  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Before you do anything, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is crucial for achieving that lovely puff in your German Pancakes.
  2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish generously with butter and set it aside. The butter will help create a crispy edge on your pancakes.
  3. Blend Your Ingredients: In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, and salt. Blend until smooth; this will help incorporate air for that optimal fluffiness.
  4. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and immediately place it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the edges rise and turn a lovely golden-brown.
  5. Enjoy! Once baked, remove the German Pancakes from the oven and let them cool slightly before cutting. Serve warm with your favorite toppings!

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Ensure your eggs and milk are fresh for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don’t Overmix: Blend just until smooth; overmixing can result in denser pancakes.
  • Get Creative with Toppings: Think outside the box—try yogurt, syrup, or even chocolate spreads for extra decadence.
  • Make It Ahead: You can whip up the batter the night before, storing it in the fridge for an effortless morning prep.
  • Serve Immediately: German Pancakes are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven while they’re still puffy and warm.
