Grandmas German Pancakes Recipes

GRANDAD'S PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; make a 'well' in the center of the flour mixture. Pour milk, eggs, and 1 tablespoon oil into the well. Mix until well moistened.
• Place a griddle over medium-high heat; sprinkle a few drops of water onto the griddle. If the droplets bounce, the griddle is ready; add 2 teaspoons oil.
• Spoon batter onto the griddle; cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 more minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

GRANDMA'S GERMAN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients together.
• Slowly pour and mix the milk into the dry ingredients. It will be like heavy cream.
• Beat the eggs and add to the mixture.
• Heat a heavy pan on medium high. Spray with oil. Ladle in 1/3 cup of crepe mix into pan and swirl to coat entire bottom of pan. Let heat about 30 seconds. Turn down heat (or remove). Use a flexible metal spatula to lift edges and then the whole pancake. Flip it over and cook until lightly browned, about a minute.
• Turn out onto a plate. (*The first pancake is often a mess but after that they come out better).
• Spread about 1 tablespoon of a tart jam or jelly on the pancake. Shake powdered sugar over all. Roll up and add another shake of powdered sugar. Enjoy.

GRANDMA'S GOOD OLD FASHIONED PANCAKES

Steps:

• (Note: It's best to use room temperature eggs and milk, so feel free to let them sit out on the counter awhile before you begin the recipe.)
• 1 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
• 2 - In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and milk just till they are fully blended and slightly bubbly. Don't over-whisk because that toughens up the eggs.
• 3 - Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture. Whisk briefly, just until dry ingredients are absorbed, but with batter remaining a little lumpy. Do not over-mix!!!
• 4 - Let sit for 5-15 min so nice air bubbles can develop. Do not re-stir!!! Treat the batter with as little extra movement as possible. Meanwhile, pre-heat griddle to 350.
• 5 - Spray griddle with cooking spray. Pour batter onto griddle using a 1/4 cup measuring cup or small ladle. Brown on both sides.
• (Freeze extras.)
• Makes 12 large pancakes (6 servings of two each).
