Yeast pancakes, also known as Dutch babies or German pancakes, are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. They are light and fluffy, with a slightly tangy flavor and a crispy outer edge. Yeast pancakes are made with a batter that is similar to pancake batter, but it includes yeast, which gives them their characteristic rise. They are typically cooked in a hot skillet or griddle with butter, and can be served with a variety of toppings, such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, or syrup.

Here are our top 9 tried and tested recipes!

Yield Makes twelve 4-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons sugar
1 package active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until lukewarm. Transfer milk to a large bowl, and stir in sugar and yeast. Let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk in flour, salt, butter, and egg yolks until batter is smooth. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Transfer bowl to a warm place; let dough rise until doubled (about 1 1/2 hours), or make batter the night before, and let rise overnight in refrigerator.
  • Heat griddle to 375 degrees and oven to 175 degrees. Using a 2-ounce (1/4-cup) ladle, pour batter onto griddle, creating several pools, 2 inches apart. Cook pancakes until bubbles form on the top and the edges are slightly dry, about 3 minutes. Using a spatula, flip pancakes; cook until golden on bottom, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof plate; keep in warm oven. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve.

BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES (YEAST METHOD)



Buckwheat Pancakes (Yeast Method) image

this is one of my adopted recipes. Based on the reviews, I have not made any changes. The original submitter said this was her mother's recipe for buckwheat pancakes. You have to start the night before, but the result is well worth it. You even have the possibility of using a starter like with sourdough. (Prep time does not include overnight period.)

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Yield 16 large pancakes, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cups buckwheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 (1/4 ounce) package dry yeast (2-3 tsp)

3/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons oil

Steps:

  • Combine flours and salt.
  • Soften yeast in warm water; stir in 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
  • Stir this liquid into the dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Be sure to use a large enough bowl so that your bowl is no more than half full at the beginning to allow plenty of room for rising.
  • Cover and let stand overnight at room temperature.
  • Next morning, stir batter, then add remaining sugar, the baking soda and oil and mix well.
  • If you want to try using a starter next time, reserve 1 cup of batter (it will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator).
  • Fry the remaining batter in a lightly greased frying pan or griddle (I prefer cast iron) as you would for regular pancakes, turning once.
  • To use starter:.
  • When you are ready to prepare the recipe again, place starter (all of it) in a large bowl (see warning, step 4 above).
  • Add 2 1/4 cups warm water, 2 1/4 cups flour, and 1 1/4 cups buckwheat flour and stir until smooth.
  • Cover; let stand overnight as before.
  • Next morning stir batter, then add 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoons soda and 2 tablespoons oil.

YEAST PANCAKES FROM TRANSYLVANIA



Yeast Pancakes from Transylvania image

Pretty much all pancake recipes use baking soda, which does give them a distinctive taste, plus they are usually good only fresh off the griddle. For a new type of pancakes, try this recipe that uses yeast instead of bicarbonate. It takes a bit longer to get the batter ready. Ever since my mother, who is from Romania, said 'Why do you add bicarbonate in this? Let me make my good old recipe with yeast!', we abandoned the other recipes and the kids only want this type of pancakes. One could see this as a combination between a pancake, a crepe, or a naan bread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, active yeast. Old or inactive yeast will not produce enough gas to cause the pancakes to rise properly.
  • Proof the yeast before using. This will help to ensure that the yeast is active and will produce a good rise.
  • Use warm milk or water. The ideal temperature for proofing yeast is between 105°F and 115°F.
  • Let the batter rise in a warm place. The ideal temperature for rising yeast batter is between 75°F and 85°F.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. Cooking the pancakes over high heat will brown them too quickly and prevent them from cooking through.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately. Yeast pancakes are best served fresh and hot.

Conclusion:

Yeast pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast food. By following these tips, you can make perfect yeast pancakes every time. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite fruits or syrup, yeast pancakes are a surefire way to start your day off right.
