An easy, no-yeast recipe for Dutch pancakes, which are called "poffertjes" in the Netherlands. They are traditionally made in a poffertjes pan which has indents, but you can use a large frying pan and scoop a small tablespoon of batter per poffertje into the pan. Serve the poffertjes warm with a knob of butter and powdered sugar.

DUTCH PANCAKES



Dutch Pancakes image

My family moved here from Holland just before I was born. These pancakes, a little thicker and eggier than a crepe, are eaten in our family for breakfast or for dinner. Serve rolled and topped with real maple syrup, fried apples, jam, or sugar. Leftovers are good eaten cold.

Time 1h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 large eggs
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
1 ¼ cups milk, or more as needed
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Beat eggs with a wire whisk in a large bowl. Add 1 3/4 cups flour and whisk until mixture is smooth. Whisk in 1 1/4 cups milk, sugar, and oil. Batter should be the consistency of buttermilk; add additional flour or milk if needed. Let batter stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Heat a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon butter and melt. Add 1/4 cup pancake batter and tilt pan to coat the bottom. Cook until pancake is nearly dry on top, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until browned, about 2 minutes. Pancake may curl slightly and that is normal, but if it curls too much add more milk to remaining batter. Stack pancake on a plate and repeat to make remaining pancakes, adding remaining butter as needed.

Pancakes filled with bacon, topped with glazed apples and smothered by a fresh cream and maple syrup sauce

Provided by Food Network

Time 2h45m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup flour, sifted
Freshly ground salt
Freshly ground white pepper
1 whole egg
3 egg yolks
1 1/4 cups milk
1-ounce butter, plus extra (softened) for dotting tops of pancakes
4 slices bacon
1 tablespoon maple syrup, plus 1/4 cup
1 green apple (Granny Smith) cored and thinly sliced
Sugar for dusting
1/2 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons arrowroot
Pinch cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the pancake batter by combining flour and freshly ground salt and pepper. Make a well in the center and add 1 whole egg, 1 egg yolk and the milk gradually and beating all the time. Set aside in a cool place for 2 hours. Melt 1-ounce butter in the frying pan. Add it to the batter mixture. Pour the batter into the pan and rotate until the base is evenly covered. When the topside looks waxy the underside is cooked. Flip over using a palette knife. Cook lightly and then turn pancake from the pan "second side up" onto a heated serving dish. (This side gets a complete cooking later when covered by bacon and broiled.) Lay slices of bacon on top and 1 tablespoon of syrup. Put dish under broiler and cook bacon for 2 1/2 minutes. Meanwhile prepare a second pancake. When the bacon is cooked cover it with the second pancake. Arrange thin slices of apple around the top of the pancakes. Dust with sugar and small pieces of softened butter. Return to the broiler until apples are soft and glazed - approximately 2 1/2 minutes. Now make the sauce. Heat the 1/4 cup of maple syrup and the cream in a pan. Mix the arrowroot and the remaining 2 egg yolks together and add them to the pan. As it comes gently to the boil add a pinch of cinnamon. Stir constantly to avoid curdling. Remove from heat when thick and pour over the pancakes. Serve piping hot - immediately.

  • Mix dry ingredients together. Add oil and eggs to this mixture. Slowly add the milk to a very thin consistency. Whisk well til very few lumps remain.
  • Fry about 1/2 cup of this mixture at a time in a quite hot frying pan sprayed with pam, you only need to grease the pan intermittantly after that.

The thinner the pancake the better:) Fry them til the top of the pancake appears dry then flip over until it is quite brown on the bottom.

Bacon and Eggs Dutch Baby Pancakes image

This recipe yields 2 large Dutch babies ???? Any leftover Dutch baby makes a truly delicious work lunch.

Provided by Ramona's Cuisine -

Categories     Pancakes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

FOR THE DUTCH BATTER:
125 g flour all purpose flour
2 large eggs or three small
240 ml milk semi-skimmed (2% fat)
2 tbsp sugar add 1 extra tbsp if you like a little sweeter
1 pinch salt
1 tsp vanilla extract or rum if you like it
FOR COOKING:
3 tbsp oil or butter
FOR TOPPINGS:
4 rashers bacon cooked to perfection
4 small eggs
1 tablespoon honey to drizzle when serving (optional)
1 tbsp fresh herbs i used parsley and thyme -finely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Making the batter 1. Place the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, vanilla, and the salt in a blender or a food processor, depending on that you chose to use to mix your batter. Whizz or blend for approximately 10-15 seconds. Might need to scrape down the sides, and blend for a further 10 seconds. You will end up with a pretty liquidy batter.
  • 2. Allow the batter to set aside. Rest it for a good 20 to 30 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid. Not the biggest issue if you only have 10 minutes to rest it.
  • 3. While your batter rests, place the skillet you're using on the middle rack to warm along with the oven. Heat the oven to 210°C or 425°F.
  • 4. When the oven is hot as well as the skillet, all ready to make the pancake, remove the skillet from the oven (of course using oven gloves) and place it on top of the stove. Add the oil or the butter (if you choose to use butter) and swirl the pan to coat the bottom and sides of the pan properly and uniformly.
  • 5. Pour the batter in the skillet, tilting the skillet slightly to spread the batter evenly to all sides. Place the skillet in the oven.
  • 6. Baking the dutch baby 1. Bake and watch (it is so fun) until the Dutch baby is nicely puffed up and golden brown on the top and the edges. It only takes about 15 to 20 minutes to bake.
  • 7. Preparing the topping 1. Whilst the pancake is baking, get the topping ready by frying some bacon rashers and the eggs in a large pan. Preferably its to fry these separately.
  • 8. Serving the pancakes 1. It can be served either straight away from the skillet or you can transfer the Dutch baby to a serving large sharing plate. Add the toppings (bacon and eggs). Cut into chunky wedges and serve with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup and if you choose to a sprinkle of fresh herbs. I used a tiny amount of finely chopped parsley and thyme freshly picked from the garden.

DUTCH MINI PANCAKES



Dutch mini pancakes image

* I used vanilla sugar but you can use 1 tbsp cane sugar and drop the vanilla one. The reason behind using vanilla is because we always eat them sweet with caramel sauce or sugar or fruit sauce so it gives that little extra flavour which is just wonderful. I sometimes add orange rind or lemon. Delicious! * I use a measuring jug...

Provided by Ramona's Cuisine -

Categories     Pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

110 g buckwheat flour
75 g spelt flour
75 g white strong flour
2 eggs medium sized and room temperature
1 tsp cane sugar
8 g dry yeast
1/3 tsp salt pink himalayan
390 ml milk needs to be lukewarm
1 sachet vanilla sugar
1/2 cup butter or coconut oil melted to grease the pan

Steps:

  • 1. Into a larger bowl, add the three flours, salt and vanilla sugar. Give it all a little whisk to mix them well.
  • 2. In a little cup mix the yeast with a little warm milk and the teaspoon of sugar. Mix until yeast and sugar have dissolved. Add this to the flour mix.
  • 3. Add the eggs and remaining milk to the flour and yeast mix until it becomes a smooth batter with no lumps. I normally use a whisker or an electric hand mixer to mix the batter. The secret to a smooth lump free batter is to add the milk little by little starting with a thick batter which you gradually thinner by adding more milk until all milk is used.
  • 4. Cover the batter with cling film and allow to rest at room temperature or in a sunny spot for 30-45 minutes. Once rested transfer to a measuring jug or a dispenser bottle to avoid mess.
  • 5. Heat up the mini pancakes pan (poffertjes) and grease each dentation. Pour the batter in each hole until almost full. Cook the mini pancakes until they start to get golden brown. Flip on the other side and allow to cook for a minute or two. * (see recipe notes for more tips).
  • 6. When all done, transfer them on a nice and big plate, get generous with sprinkling powdered sugar, add a knob of butter if fancy and/or a drizzle of caramel sauce. Enjoy!

DUTCH PANCAKES



Dutch Pancakes image

This is from a Pennsylvania Dutch Cookbook. I used to make this as a little girl in my mom's iron skillet. I made it with a very good friend of mine and she still talks about these today. They were a lot of fun to make since they really bubbled up in the oven and of course it helped that we got to put butter and sugar all over them!

2 eggs, well beaten
1/2 cup milk
confectioners' sugar
butter (I add this, but it's not part of original recipe)
lemon wedge

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
