Description

Hootenanny Puff Oven Pancakes, also known as German Pancakes or Dutch Babies, are a delightful twist on traditional pancakes. A golden, crispy, and airy pancake that’s as visually appealing as it is delicious.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 58 Tablespoons of butter
  • 6 eggs
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 c. milk
  • 1 cup flour
  • Optional: add a half a teaspoon of vanilla and a teaspoon of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. First turn on oven to 400. Put 5-8 Tablespoons (the original recipe called for the whole cube of butter–I prefer less) of butter in a 9×13 pan. Put the pan in the oven to heat up. It is important to heat up your pan before pouring the batter into it; this makes the the pancake get puffy and form peaks and valleys while it bakes. Usually by the time I have the batter whipped up the butter is melted. (Don’t let the butter burn, though.)
  2. Blend the rest of the ingredients in your blender and pour into the melted, sizzling butter in the hot pan. Bake at 400 for 20-25minutes. The pancake will be all puffed up in crazy “hills” and golden. Serve hot with syrup–and my favorite, sprinkled with lots of berries! Yum!
