German Pancakes

This is our favorite breakfast food around here. We usually either have it for dinner on a Friday (our breakfast for dinner night) or for our Saturday morning breakfast. This recipe is for an 8x8 casserole dish. I usually triple the recipe to make one 8x8, and one 8x11 size German pancake. 

2 Tbs butter

3 eggs

1/2 c milk

1/2 c flour

1/4 c

1/4 t salt 

Preheat oven to 450. 

Cut the butter up and put in casserole dish to melt in the oven. Don't let it burn. Mix eggs (but not so much that its all filled with little air bubbles or it won't bake right), then add milk and mix. Add your dry ingredients (flour and salt) and mix. Easy as pie. Um, much easier. Pour the batter over the melted butter and put into the oven to bake. Depending on how much I have baking it cooks anywhere from 15-25 minutes. You'll know it's done because it is big and puffy on the sides and the puffy parts are starting to lightly brown. At this point we like to sprinkle powdered sugar on it. You can also add fruit or pour maple sugar on it. Eat.
