Time 45m

Yield 18 to 24 pancakes (depending on size of the tin)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup milk
1 heaping tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
6 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
1/2 teaspoon salt
Nonstick cooking spray
Apple-Calvados Caramel Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup powdered sugar mixed with 1 heaping teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 Gala apple, peeled, cored and diced
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and diced
1 cup packed light brown muscovado sugar
1/4 cup calvados
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 fresh mint leaves, torn, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the milk, sugar, vanilla, zest and eggs in a blender and blend until smooth. Add the flour, butter and salt and blend until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Spray muffin tins well with nonstick cooking spray and pour 1/4 cup batter into each tin, filling about three-quarters full. Bake until puffy and golden on top, about 15 minutes. Remove and let sit on a baking rack for a few minutes. Remove the individual pancakes to a platter. The pancakes will sink slightly in the center. Fill with some of the Apple-Calvados Caramel Sauce and dust with cinnamon powdered sugar.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples and cook, stirring until soft, about 8 minutes. Whisk in the sugar and cook until the sugar melts and thickens slightly. Remove the skillet from the heat, add the calvados, then return to the stove and cook until reduced. Add the heavy cream and cook until warmed through. Finish with the mint.

Easy as turning on your blender. These delicious morsels are made in muffin tins, topped with your favorite jam and sprinkled with powdered sugar. These are similar to what I used to call Swedish pancakes made in a cast iron skillet and baked in the oven. This is way easier.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 31m

Yield 18-24 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup milk (dairy or non dairy)
6 eggs
1 cup flour (can sub 1/3 cup of the flour with whole wheat flour)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 lbs strawberries, diced
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract (or almond extract)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Blend first six ingredients (milk through orange zest) in a blender. Be careful to see that any flour clumps get well-blended.
  • Blend in butter a little at a time in order to temper the eggs.
  • Grease muffin tins well and distribute batter evenly between 18-24 tins. Bake for 15 minutes, or until puffy and golden on top.
  • Served with your favorite toppings.
  • Strawberry Sauce:.
  • In a large sauce pan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and extract. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 1 minute and remove from heat.
  • Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes so it is just warm. Place 1 1/2 cups of the mixture from the sauce pan in a blender. This is where you need to be careful. Don't put the lid on the top all the way. Leave it cracked or the steam from the strawberries could cause an explosion. If you have an immersion blender, feel free to use that and no chance of an explosion. Blend until smooth and stir back into the remaining strawberry mixture in the pan.
  • Serve over the mini pancakes and enjoy!

MINI GERMAN PANCAKES RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Mini German Pancakes Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-23189

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup milk
6 eggs
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
1/4 cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Blend first six ingredients (milk thru orange zest) in a blender. Be careful to see that any flour clumps get well-blended. Blend in butter a little at a time in order to temper the eggs. Grease muffin tins well and distribute batter evenly between 24 tins (I did more like 18. Gimme Some Oven's tins were slightly less than half-full. I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup and filled it almost full.) Bake for 15 minutes, or until puffy and golden on top. Served with your favorite toppings. Mine was a dusting of powdered sugar and triple berry sauce.

Tips:

  • For fluffy pancakes, make sure to separate the egg whites and beat them until stiff peaks form before folding them into the batter.
  • If you don't have a blender, you can whisk the batter by hand. Just be sure to whisk vigorously to ensure that all ingredients are well combined.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough pancakes.
  • Use a nonstick skillet or griddle to cook the pancakes. This will prevent them from sticking and make them easier to flip.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat to prevent them from burning. Flip them once bubbles form around the edges and the undersides are golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Mini German pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a stack of fluffy, golden brown pancakes that are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give these mini German pancakes a try!
