German Pancakes (aka Dutch Babies)
List of Ingredients
1/3 cup margarine/butter
4 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
dash fresh nutmeg
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In large, heavy, round pan with sides approx 2 to 2 1/2 inches high
(I use a paella pan) place margarine in pan and into oven to melt.
While margarine is melting, blend the eggs in your blender for 1
minute (or until light yellow if by hand). While motor is running,
slowly add milk then flour. Add nutmeg if desired. Pour over melted
margarine and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffy.
Serve immediately.
Recipe
second recipe
3 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tblsp butter, melted
2 tblsp lemon juice confectioner's sugar
Butter either one 12" ovenproof skillet, or four 6" ovenproof
skillets (pie or cake pans may be substituted). Beat
the eggs until thoroughly mixed. Add the milk and
blend well. Sift together flour and salt, and add
slowly but continuously to the egg mixture, whisking
as you do so. Add the melted butter, and whisk til
batter is smooth. Pour into pan or pans and bake at
450 for 15 minutes.
The four small German babies will be done at this
point. The one large one requires another 10 minutes
of baking, with the oven reduced to 350. After
removing from the oven, sprinkle with the lemon juice
and dust with confectioner's sugar. Serve at once
while hot.
