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.
